The Audiovisual Description Profile (AVDP) is a profile of the MPEG-7 multimedia description standard, targeting applications in audiovisual media production and archiving. AVDP has been developed by the EBU MIM/SCAIE group. The core group of contributors to the profile consists of members of the TOSCA-MP consortium, together with Japan’s national broadcaster NHK.
The profile supports the description of audio, video or audiovisual content, ensuring a unified document structure for all types of content. A key feature of AVDP is the modularity in the descriptions (e.g., separating metadata originating from different modalities or produced by different tools). It is the first profile based on version 2 of MPEG-7 and includes low-level audio and video descriptors. JOANNEUM RESEARCH provides a semantic validation service for this profile.
