e-Archives

• Online storage as THE place to store images + local HDD backup
• First step (BMArchives team): Collecting all the original data (TIFFs) on a physical storage (HDD) and unifying consistently filenames.
• Definition of a clean WORKFLOW how to add new images
• Automated updates of the BMArchives website from the online storage (new zoomable imagery appears the next day after it is added to the online storage)
• Zooming for all the photos possible
• Links (signed) for purchased items - with validity for 24 hours?
• Find and recommend online storage.
• Find and recommend a client: Cyberduck / GoodSync / S3Sync
• IIIF standard on the image server: http://www-sul.stanford.edu/iiif/image-api/
