The press release of the 102nd MPEG meeting discusses the work on multimedia preservation:
„ Understanding the importance for the preservation of digital multimedia used in many different domains including cultural heritage, scientific research, engineering, education and training, entertainment, and fine arts, MPEG has started to work on the standardization of the Multimedia Preservation Archival Format. At this meeting, MPEG reviewed the responses to the call for proposals. Responses showed that MPEG has wide range of technologies to be used for multimedia preservation such as Professional Archival Application Format, MPEG-21 Digital Item Description Language and various MPEG-7 audio-visual descriptors. MPEG will continue to evaluate the submissions and develop standards in its coming meetings including a working draft in April 2013 that will achieve the status of Final Draft International Standard in April 2014.
TOSCA-MP is contributing to this standardisation effort with the MPEG-7 Audiovisual Description Profile (AVDP) and a proposal for visual quality description using MPEG-7.
