Final Report

Visual Sound and Materials portal scoping study and demonstrator project
This project commissioned to undertake the development of an image portal demonstrator, based on the recommendations of the JISC PIXUS project.
A further feasibility study was undertaken as the first phase of this project which was to adopt all JISC IE standards and work to point users towards
time-based media and still images – including those licensed for the JISC community, those available ‘free’ on the internet and those generated within the academic and publicly-funded community.

This project is being undertaken by EDINA
