This amendment, ISO/IEC 15938-5:2008/AMD5:2015, defines an extension to the Multimedia Description Schemes (MDS) part of ISO/IEC 15938-5 for incorporating Quality Metadata (QM) into MDS. The amendment is structured around the enhancement and expansion of existing metadata schemes to accommodate new requirements in multimedia content quality assessment and description. It provides detailed specifications on how QM can be effectively embedded within a Multimedia Description Scheme, ensuring interoperability across various multimedia applications.
The primary focus of this document lies in defining the syntax and semantics for encoding Quality Metadata alongside other types of metadata, such as structural and descriptive metadata. This enables more accurate representation and analysis of multimedia content quality attributes which are essential for effective content management and delivery systems.
ISO/IEC 15938-5:2008/AMD5:2015 also includes guidelines on the implementation and use of Quality Metadata within a broader Multimedia Description Framework. It outlines best practices and recommendations to ensure consistency in metadata usage across different domains, thereby facilitating better integration between disparate systems.
