Application Profile

• An application profile is a set of metadata elements, policies, and guidelines defined for a particular application. (Wikipedia)

• The elements may be from one or more element sets, thus allowing a given application to meet its functional requirements by using metadata from several element sets including locally defined sets.

• An application profile is not complete without documentation that defines the policies and best practices appropriate to the application

Do you want to integrate?

(VISH+ODS)

• Provide your metadata according to the ODS AP– Do you have metadata? Then create your XSLT file– If you are completely compliant to IEEE LOM, then no

problem

• Provide a OAI-PMH target for us to harvest your repository– Do you have the OAI-PMH target? Then give us your

target address

• Let us know to harvest you– The metadata would be open and free to use

• VISH repository is joined to the ODS– VISH becomes as a member of big ODS family – ODS harvests one more high quality learning repository
