2    PRISM Documentation Structure

PRISM is described in a set of formal, modularized documents that, taken together, represent “the PRISM Specification.” Together these documents comprise the PRISM Documentation Package.

2.1    Normative and Non-normative Sections

Documents in the PRISM Documentation Package may contain both normative and non-normative material; normative material describes element names, attributes, formats, and the contents of elements that is required in order for content or systems to comply with the PRISM Specification. Non-normative material explains, expands on, or clarifies the normative material, but it does not represent requirements for compliance. Normative material in the PRISM Documentation Package is explicitly identified as such; any material not identified as normative can be assumed to be non-normative.

2.1.1  Requirement Wording Note

The key words "MUST," "MUST NOT," "REQUIRED," "SHALL," "SHALL NOT," "SHOULD," "SHOULD NOT," "RECOMMENDED," "MAY," and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC-2119]. The PRISM Specification also uses the normative term, “STRONGLY ENCOURAGES,” which should be understood as a requirement equivalent to “MUST” in all but the most extraordinary circumstances.

Capitalization is significant; lower-case uses of the key words are intended to be interpreted in their normal, informal, English language way.

2.2    The PRISM 3.0 Documentation Package

The PRISM Documentation Package has been reorganized and some specifications renamed to more accurately reflect the nature of each specification module.  The PRISM documentation package includes the following specifications and documents:

2.3    Compliance Specification

This document provides compliance specification.

Document

Description

PRISM Compliance [PRISMCOMP]

Describes three profiles of PRISM compliance for content and systems; includes normative material.

2.4    PRISM Metadata Specifications

This is the set of documents that outline the prism metadata fields and values by PRISM metadata category.  PRISM has modularized its metadata specification by namepace so users may pick those modules that meet their unique business requirements without having to implement the entire PRISM specification.

Document

Description

PRISM Advertising Metadata Specification [PRISMADMS]

Describes advertising metadata elements including those drawn from AdsML, GWG and Ad-ID; includes normative material.

The PRISM Basic Metadata Specification [PRISMBMS]

Describes the basic metadata elements contained in the PRISM namespace to describe article content; includes normative material.

The PRISM Contract Management Metadata Specification [PRISMCMMS]

Describes metadata elements from the PRISM Contract Management Metadata (pccm:)  namespace that are used to describe contracts and legal documents.

The PRISM Crafts Metadata Specification [PRISMCMS]

Describes the metadata elements contained in the PRISM Crafts Metadata Namespace (pcm:).  Includes normative material.

The PRISM Subset of Dublin Core Metadata Specification [PRISMDCMS]

Describes the metadata elements from the Dublin Core namespace that are included in PRISM; includes normative material.

The PRISM Image Metadata Specification [PRISMIMS]

Describes the metadata elements contained in the PRISM Metadata for Images Namespace and other related image namespaces, includes normative material.

The PRISM Recipe Metadata Specification [PRISMRMS]

Describes the metadata elements contained in the PRISM Recipe Metadata Namespace (prm:).  Includes normative material.

The PRISM Rights Summary Metadata Specification [PRISMRSMS]

Describes the metadata elements contained in the PRISM Rights Summary Metadata Namespace (prsm:).  Includes normative material.

The PRISM Usage Rights Metadata Specification [PRISMURMS]

Describes the metadata elements contained in the PRISM Usage Rights Namespace; includes normative material. This namespace will supersede elements in both the prism: and prl: namespaces in version 3.0 of the specification.

Some elements from PUR are referenced from the newer, more comprehensive PRISM Rights Summary Metadata Specification [PRISMRSMS].

2.5    PRISM Aggregator Message Markup Specifications

This module documents the PRISM Markup Elements and Attributes for use with the PRISM Aggregator Message (PAM) and other aggregator messages.     This set of documents includes:

Document

Description

The PRISM PAM Markup Specification [PRISMPAMMS]

Describes the XML elements and attributes used to encode the PRISM Aggregator Message from both the pam: and pim: namespaces; includes normative material.

The PRISM PAM Markup for Web Content Specification [PRISMPAMWMS]

Describes the XML elements and attributes used to encode the PRISM Aggregator Message for Web Content.  This Specification draws from both the pam: and pim: namespaces and includes normative material. PAMW is used to automate the harvesting of Web Content so that it may be sent to aggregators or stored in a publishers PAM-based content management system.

2.6    PRISM Inline Markup Specification

This module documents the PRISM Inline Markup Elements and Attributes for use with the PRISM Aggregator Message.  This set of documents includes:

Document

Description

The PRISM Inline Markup Specification [PRISMIMS]

Describes the XML elements used to encode the inline markup for the PRISM Aggregator Message. Includes normative material.

2.7    PRISM Controlled Vocabulary Specifications

These modules are new with PRISM 3.0.  All controlled vocabularies and their terms are documented in this publication set. 

Document

Description

The PRISM Controlled Vocabulary Markup Specification [PRISMCVMS]

Describes the metadata fields in the PRISM Controlled Vocabulary Namespace that can be used to describe a controlled vocabulary.   Actual PRISM controlled vocabularies are now placed in the PRISM Controlled Vocabularies Specification [PRISMCVS]

The PRISM Controlled Vocabularies Specification [PRISMCVS]

The PRISM Controlled Vocabularies are now documented in this document.

 

2.8    Additional PRISM Documentation (Non-Normative Guides)

•       The Guide to the PRISM Aggregator Message [PAMGUIDE] documents the PRISM Aggregator Message (PAM), an XML-based application of PRISM.

•       The Guide to the PRISM Aggregator Message for Web Content [PAMWGUIDE] documents the PRISM Aggregator Message (PAM), an XML-based application of PRISM.

•       Guide to the PSV Aggregator/Distributor Message Package [PAMPGUIDE] documents how to use the PRISM metadata fields and pamP XML messaging tags to deliver content to content aggregators/distributors.  The Guide documents the pamP XML message structure and provides the pamP XSD and document samples.

Reference [ODRLRSGUIDE]

•       The Guide to PRISM Metadata for Images [IMAGEGUIDE] documents an XML-based PRISM Profile 1 application for the expression of the structure and use of PRISM Metadata for Images and can be used as the basis for developing an image management system based on PRISM Metadata for Images and for implementing PMI in XML.

•       The Guide to PRISM Recipe Metadata and XML Encoding [RECIPEGUIDE] documents the XML-based recipe model for developing a recipe database, for tagging a wide variety of recipes in XML and for tagging recipes within a PAM Message.

•       The Guide to PRISM Usage Rights [RIGHTSGUIDE] documents an XML-based PRISM application for the expression of PRISM Usage Rights.  The Guide is accompanied by an XSD that can be used as the basis for developing a digital rights management system based on PRISM Usage Rights.

•       PAM to PSV_Guide [PAMPSVGUIDE] documents mappings from PAM XML to PSV XML.

2.9    PRISM Source Vocabulary Specifications

In 2010, Idealliance developed a series of specifications collectively known as the PRISM Source Vocabulary.  The use case for PSV is to encode semantically rich content for transformation and delivery to any platform. This Specification is made up of a modular documentation package that builds on PRISM 3.0 and HTML5.  Over time new modules may be added to the documentation package.  The documentation package for PSV, PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification Version 1.0 consists of:

Document

Description

PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification [PSVS]

The PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification defines semantically rich for source metadata and content markup that can be transformed and served to a wide variety of output devices including eReaders, mobile tablet devices, smart phones and print.

PRISM Source Vocabulary Markup Specification [PSVMS]

The PSV Markup Specification documents the XML tags in the PSV namespace that are used to encode XML Source Content.

2.10 PRISM Schemas

While PRISM is primarily a metadata specification, it also includes some XML schemas that define encoding of specific kinds of content for publication and interchange.  The PRISM schemas include:

•       Contracts_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode publication contracts.

•       Crafts_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode crafts.

•       Image_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode images.

•       PAM_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator message.

•       pamW_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator message for Web content.

•       pamP_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator/distributor message package.

•       PSV_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode content in PRISM Source Vocabulary.

•       Recipe_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode recipes.

•       Rights_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode usage rights.

2.11 PRISM Controlled Vocabularies

PRISM has defined 38 controlled vocabularies using PRISM controlled vocabulary markup.  See The PRISM Controlled Vocabulary Specification [PRISMCVS].  All CVs are available in CVs.zip.

2.12 PRISM Namespaces

PRISM namespace declarations can be found in Namespaces.zip.  The following are the recommended Namespaces for PRISM metadata:

2.13 PSV Content Management Schema

In order to assist implementers develop a PSV-based federated content management solution, the nextPub Working Group is providing an XML Schema (XSD) that can serve as the basis for the design of a PSV content repository. 

Note: The PSV CM schema is not designed for tagging content.  It is provided simply to serve as a basis for the design of a content repository.  Metadata building blocks from this schema can be combined with HTML5 by publishers who wish to develop a hybrid PSV metadata and content tagging schema.

2.14 Other PSV Schemas

Because PSV is a flexible framework, it supports many different use case scenarios.  A different schema, using the PSV metadata fields and content encoding can be developed for each different use case.  In order to assist PSV implementers, the nextPub Working Group is planning to provide a number of XML Schemas (XSDs) to support common use cases including tagging an article and transmitting articles to content aggregators.


3    Introduction

3.1    Purpose and Scope

The purpose of this document is to describe the basic metadata elements that the PRISM Working Group has defined and included in the PRISM Metadata for Images namespace. All of Section 5 and 6 of this document are normative.

3.2    New in this Version

Version 3.0 of this specification has no substantive changes.

3.3    Image Encoding in the PRISM Aggregator Message

This metadata specification can not be directly used in the PRISM Aggregator Message tag set.  No special image tagging has been developed for the PRISM Aggragator Message.  See The Guide to PRISM Images [IMAGEGUIDE] for more information about using generic class= to communicate image semantics in PAM.

3.4    Coding Images in nextPub Source

3.5    Controlled Vocabularies for Recipe Metadata Fields

Values for the image metadata fields are documented in the The PRISM Controlled Vocabularies Specification [PRISMCVS] Version 3.0.


4    PRISM Image Metadata

4.1    pmi: Namespace

The PRISM specification defines numerous namespaces. The ‘pmi’ namespace describes the elements that are included within PRISM for the description of images including digital photographs, illustrations and art.

The recommended namespace for PRISM is:
xmlns:prism=”http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/pmi/3.0/”

4.2    Related Namespaces Documented in this Specification

The PRISM Metadata for Images Namespace Specification includes metadata elements for images that come from two established image specifications that are in common use today.  These include the photoshop: namespace (developed by Adobe), the Iptc4xmpExt: namespace developed by IPTC (see http://iptc.org).  The elements in these namespaces are documented in Section 5 and 6.

4.3    Additional Metadata Elements for Images

Additional metadata elements from PRISM and Dublin Core namespaces are also recommended for use with images.  The full metadata models recommended for images are documented in the The Guide to Metadata for Images [IMAGEGUIDE].


5    PRISM Metadata for Images Elements and Attribute Definitions

5.1    PRISM Element and Attribute Documentation Model

Elements documented in this section belong to either the prism: namespace or the pmi: namespace.  All three PRISM profiles are documented in this section. First Profile #1 is documented.

Note: Since delivering image metadata to aggregators is not currently in the scope of PAM, all elements documented here have a “No” indication for PRISM Aggregator Message inclusion.

PRISM Profile #2 (RDF/XML) is also documented in this section. In combining XML with RDF, there is far greater flexibility in tagging than we are used to when we define XML elements and attributes with an XML DTD. The remainder of this section contains the most likely element/attribute models for PRISM  Profile #2. Other Profile #2 models are possible based on the interaction between XML and RDF.

PRISM Profile #3 (XMP) is also documented in this section. The documentation concentrates on the property and container values for the XMP field to provides information required to develop an XMP schema to implement PRISM in the XMP environment. Note that XMP can be particularly useful in extending the capability of encoding multimedia objects with PRISM metadata.

5.2    Element and Attribute Definitions

5.2.1  prism:byteCount

Name

Byte Count

Identifier

prism:byteCount

Definition

Size, in 8-bit bytes, of the resource.

Occurrence

Occurs 0 or 1 time

Comment

Typically, prism:byteCount is the size of a file. It might be used to display an estimate of download time to a user, to serve as a quick check on whether a file was transmitted correctly between systems, etc. If the resource is compressed, such as a JPEG image, byteCount gives its compressed size, which is much easier to obtain.

6     Related Metadata for Images Element and Attribute Definitions

6.1    Related Namespaces Documented in this Specification

The PRISM Metadata for Images Namespace Specification includes metadata elements for images that come from two established image specifications that are in common use today.  These include the Dublin Core namespace, photoshop: namespace (developed by Adobe) and the iptc4xmpcore: namespace developed by IPTC (see http://iptc.org) .

Note:  Additional Elements from PRISM namespaces and from the IDEAlliance DISC namespace are also recommended for use with images.  The full metadata models recommended for images are documented in the The Guide to Profile 1 Metadata for Images [IMAGEGUIDE].

6.2    PRISM Element and Attribute Documentation Model

All three PRISM profiles are documented in this section. First Profile #1 is documented. The documentation for the XML only profile includes a field that indicates whether this element is included in the PRISM Aggregator Message.

PRISM Profile #2 (RDF/XML) is also documented in this section. In combining XML with RDF, there is far greater flexibility in tagging than we are used to when we define XML elements and attributes with an XML DTD. The remainder of this section contains the most likely element/attribute models for profile 2 PRISM. Other profile 2 models are possible based on the interaction between XML and RDF.

PRISM Profile #3 (XMP) is also documented in this section. The documentation concentrates on the property and container values for the XMP field to provides information required to develop an XMP schema to implement PRISM in the XMP environment. Note that XMP can be particularly useful in extending the capability of encoding multimedia objects with PRISM metadata.

6.3    Dublin Core Element and Attribute Definitions

As of PRISM 3.0, we are adding the declaration of the image format using the dc:format element.  Reference the PRISM Subset of Dublin Core Metadata Specification for complete documentation of dc:format.

6.3.1  dc:format

Name

Identifier

dc:format

 

Definition

The physical or digital manifestation of the image.

 

Occurrence

Occurs 0 or 1 time

 

Comment

Format may be used to determine the software, hardware or other equipment needed to display or operate the resource. Examples of dimensions include size and duration.

It is strongly encouraged that PRISM-compliant systems sending PRISM records restrict values of the dc:format element to those in list of Internet Media Types[IETF-MIMETYPES] for example, image/jpeg or image/png.
