Label

Relation

Element Description

The relation element allows us to clarify which images are directly related to each other because they depict events that have occurred in a sequence. This provides additional context for each image and allows the end user to better understand how the still images fit together.

Required?

No.

Repeatable?

No.

Guidelines for Creation of Content

1. Determine if the relation element is needed. If there are asterisks (*) in the image set, relation should be included.

2. Assume that the images with asterisks are already in sequential order and number them accordingly.

i.e. given the set [img_8237*, img_9283*, img_7274*], img_8237 is 1, img_9283 is 2, and img_7274 is 3. 

3. Using the established identifier for each image, add an underscore (_) and the relation number for each image.

i.e. img_8237 would become "identifier_1"


Examples

Image set [MFB_Texas09_CJ02674*, MFB_Texas09_KG01552*]

Create identifiers according to the identifier guidelines.

MFB_Texas09_CJ02674 becomes 20100107CJ02674

MFB_Texas09_KG01552 becomes 20100107KG01552

Then, add _# in the order of the original sequence

20100107CJ02674 becomes 20100107CJ02674_1

20100107KG01552 becomes 20100107KG01552_2

Notes

The identifier element should be completed BEFORE the relation element.
