== OSGeo-related videos preserved at the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB)  ==
 +
The German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) ‒ Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology is a central specialised library, it is a national infrastructure facility for the provision of scientific information. TIB is actively collecting videos from past, current and upcoming OSGeo conferences and similar events.

==Where to publish your screencast==
 +
 
 +
=== German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) ===
 +
FOSS4G cooperates with the [https://www.tib.eu/ German National Library of Science and Technology] ([[TIB]]). TIB is one of the world’s largest specialised libraries for science and technology. It is publicly funded and has no commercial interest. TIB provides a scientific open access video portal ([https://av.tib.eu AV-Portal]), where recordings from OSGeo conferences (in English and German) can be stored, long term preserved and made citable using persistent digital object identifers (DOI). TIB provides this services free of charge for OSGeo. If you wish to publish your video in the AV Portal, you have different options to do so:
 +
 
 +
==== How does TIB get the videofiles? ====
 +
 
 +
1. Contcat TIB (KNM@tib.eu) and inform them that you would like to publish the videos from your conference
 +
 
 +
2. Make sure you have the permission form the speakers to publish the videos before
 +
 
 +
3. Sign a license document with TIB
 +
 
 +
4.1. Large data transmissions via an FTP server (prefered way):
 +
(to obtain the FTP access data, please contact KNM@tib.eu)
 +
* we have a user account FOSS4G (ask [[User:Astrid Emde]] for the access) to transfer the files easily to TIB
 +
 
 +
4.2. Single videos via the TIB AV-Portal upload form:
 +
* If you wish to upload a video, please [https://av.tib.eu/registration register] in the AV Portal and follow the instructions. The upload form helps * you to insert the metadata to describe the video.
 +
* Registration and upload steps:
 +
** Register via the respective tab on the AV Portal.
 +
** Log in by using your customer name and password.
 +
** Use the tab "Upload" and fill out the upload form.
 +
** Specify the publisher as „FOSS4G“ and title of series as „FOSS4G +year”
 +
 
 +
; Requirements by TIB (if you do not use the upload form)
 +
* Create a directory for every video and metadata file. Save the video file in mp4 and the metadatafile in xml in the directory.
 +
* The name of the directory and the video file and the metadata file must be identical, so that they can be matched automatically.
 +
 
 +
For example:
 +
* folder with the name of the video file '''foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle'''
 +
**name of the video file: '''foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.mp4'''
 +
**name of the XML-file: foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.xml
 +
**name of additional documents like slides: foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.pdf
 +
 
 +
'''How to generate the metadata files'''
 +
*for every mp4 file we have to upload (on an ftp server) a metadata file
 +
*the metadata file has the same name as the mp4 file with ending xml
 +
*the xml-files can be generated by the schedule.jspn file from frab (http://frab.fossgis-konferenz.de/en/foss4g-2016/public/schedule.json)
 +
*Astrid (astrid_emde(at) osgeo.org) can give you a script to generate the file for each mp4 file
 +
*for example see: https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/astrid_emde/video.foss4g.org/src/master/foss4g2016/example
 +

Actually main free video hosting are using a strong dowsampling that does not allow a good video quality to present screencast.

Then you'll need to find your own web hosting or a free one that can host just the video without resampling.

This is page is a try to create a central index of all available Video Tutorials and Screencasts about FOSS for GIS. It also describes how to publish videos at TIB-AV Portal.

OSGeo-related videos preserved at the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB)

The German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) ‒ Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology is a central specialised library, it is a national infrastructure facility for the provision of scientific information. TIB is actively collecting videos from past, current and upcoming OSGeo conferences and similar events.

Where to publish your screencast

German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB)

FOSS4G cooperates with the German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB). TIB is one of the world’s largest specialised libraries for science and technology. It is publicly funded and has no commercial interest. TIB provides a scientific open access video portal (AV-Portal), where recordings from OSGeo conferences (in English and German) can be stored, long term preserved and made citable using persistent digital object identifers (DOI). TIB provides this services free of charge for OSGeo. If you wish to publish your video in the AV Portal, you have different options to do so:

How does TIB get the videofiles?

1. Contcat TIB (KNM@tib.eu) and inform them that you would like to publish the videos from your conference

2. Make sure you have the permission form the speakers to publish the videos before

3. Sign a license document with TIB

4.1. Large data transmissions via an FTP server (prefered way): (to obtain the FTP access data, please contact KNM@tib.eu)

  • we have a user account FOSS4G (ask User:Astrid Emde for the access) to transfer the files easily to TIB

4.2. Single videos via the TIB AV-Portal upload form:

  • If you wish to upload a video, please register in the AV Portal and follow the instructions. The upload form helps * you to insert the metadata to describe the video.
  • Registration and upload steps:
    • Register via the respective tab on the AV Portal.
    • Log in by using your customer name and password.
    • Use the tab "Upload" and fill out the upload form.
    • Specify the publisher as „FOSS4G“ and title of series as „FOSS4G +year”
Requirements by TIB (if you do not use the upload form)
  • Create a directory for every video and metadata file. Save the video file in mp4 and the metadatafile in xml in the directory.
  • The name of the directory and the video file and the metadata file must be identical, so that they can be matched automatically.

For example:

  • folder with the name of the video file foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle
    • name of the video file: foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.mp4
    • name of the XML-file: foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.xml
    • name of additional documents like slides: foss4g-2016-1215-mapproxy_in_practice-helle.pdf

How to generate the metadata files

What licence to use

Example 1: For the international community we recommend:

Creative Commons BY 4.0 International

Example 2: If the video is published in Germany and/or addresses the German community we recommend:

Creative Commons BY 3.0 Germany
