MINT Mapping Tool Sample Clauses

MINT Mapping Tool. MINT offers a web based platform to facilitate the aggregation initiatives for cultural heritage content and metadata in Europe. It offers functionality for the ingestion, mapping and aggregation of metadata records, and proceeds to implement a variety of remediation approaches for the resulting repository. This framework has been used in the Athena, Carare5 and EUscreen6 projects (all completed) as well as in ongoing projects such as LoCloud7, AthenaPlus8, and EUscreenXL9 to prepare different types of cultural heritage metadata for ingest into Europeana10. Mappings to a reference data model are created 10 ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇/ using a visual mapping editor that displays the input and target XML file. Mapping starts from one or more metadata instances and needs as complete as possible instances. In addition, string manipulation operations, conditional mappings, and constant or controlled value assignments can be defined. All mapping instructions are represented using XSLT. The EBU11 will soon open an installation to its members for mapping their metadata to EBUCore [8].
