Objectives
of Task Team F
1. Develop a “map” or model that describes how this
work and this instrument are related to public broadcasting’s
broad and long-term data exchange, storage and integrity needs:
- How might the PBMD be integrated into key local operations (e.g.
BO&E, Development, Web) as well as national Projects, such
as the Next Generation Interconnection System, NPR’s Content
Depot and PBS Orion?
- Which software systems and technical infrastructure could and
should be affected?
- How can we assure “compliance” with the standard
at the national and local level, including stations, national distributors,
producers, etc.? Are there different levels of compliance?
- How might we work with software vendors at a national level to
gain their input and compliance?
- What are the logical next steps on PB’s trajectory of seamless
data-exchange?
- Are further protocols required to ensure interoperability, such
as a common metadata thesaurus, or the use of XML to express dictionary
elements?
- How might the dictionary aid in the formation of data or data/essence
repositories?
- Will service bureaus or other outsourcing options be required
to perform metadata tagging in the future?
