My plan is to add a datastream containing the 'tiles' to each image
object. Name for the datastream has not been decided yet, but it will
likely be a convention based on the viewer used in the disseminator. In
the datastream will be the zipped tiles required for the viewer.

Something along the lines of:
ZoomView  - a disseminator which can spew out an HTML fragment
containing a viewer, probably embedded Flash.
ORIGAMITILES - if we use Origami
http://opensource.at.northwestern.edu:8080/origami/at-projects/tiled-ima
ge-viewer/about-the-project/what-is-it This will be the solution of
choice in future.
ZOOMIFYTILES - if we use Zoomify. http://www.zoomify.com/

The ZoomView disseminator can then check which datastreams there are to
choose what to display.

BTW, we use Zoomify for existing content and have a license. Origami is
interesting because there is an Actionscript 3 version and it is
completely Open Source. Plus the developers are friendly and responsive.
My personal emails to Zoomify were never even answered. YMMV of course.

Onderwerp: [Fedora-commons-users] tiled image and fedora object

hi,
just out of curiosity (well, not totally -- it might end up on my tasks
list): what's the best practice to manage tiled images with fedora?
background: we got several images of manuscripts and they should be
available in an image viewer with zoom, moving and so on, more or less
like google maps does.

afaik the usual method is to tile the image in several small files and
load depending on zoom level and position only a few tiles.
