Implementation of IIIF for Natural History Collections
The CETAF Identifier specification provides a uniform way for people and machines to access textual data about specimens over the internet but one of the primary use cases is to access images of specimens. These pages document best practice for exposing specimen images using IIIF and why this approach is recommended. The initial development of these recommendations was carried out as part of an EU funded Synthesys+ Task 4.3 (2019-2021) which was part of the larger DISSCo initiative.
IIIF ([International Image Interoperability Framework]) is an exchange standard for sharing multimedia representations of objects on-line. It has been adopted by many institutions and commercial partners in the digital humanities community but, before Synthesys+ Task 4.3, was not used in the Natural History community.
There is quite a lot of information here so it is split across multiple pages.
- IIIF Background - Why IIIF looks like the right fit for Natural History Specimens.
- IIIF Framework - An overview of the IIIF Framework including the standards and organisation.
Linking
- IIIF Linking HTML - How to link to and from a IIIF Manifest and a HTML page.
- IIIF Linking CETAF IDs - How to link to and from a IIIF Manifest and CETAF ID.
- IIIF Linking Darwin Core - How to link from Darwin Core Archive files to IIIF Manifests
- IIIF Linking ABCD - How to link from ABCD metadata to a IIIF Manifest
- IIIF Linking CSV - Linking from generic CSV download files.
Deployments
Case Studies
- IIIF RBGE Example - How IIIF is implemented at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh
- IIIF Herbaria Mundi - An example of combining IIIF resources from multiple sources
- IIIF BGBM Example - How IIIF is implemented at the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin (B)
