The gallery provides various functionalities, e.g., a compact overview of items inside the gallery, a lightbox to show images and play videos, as well as a sharing feature.
However, each functionality can only be used when the information is provided. Furthermore, it must be clear where the information is located inside the data.
The gallery mapping file allows diverse data structures to be mapped to a predefined vocabulary, ensuring data compatibility within the gallery.
Thereby gallery keys are mapped to data keys, i.e., column names of the data layers.
All gallery keys are optional. If the data does not contain certain information and the key pair is not set in the mapping file, the corresponding functionality will not be enabled in the gallery.
Example
In the following, the keys are divided thematically via sections, where each section groups specific functionalities in the gallery.
Section | Gallery Key | Note |

Main gallery | ||
mime_type | The MIME-Type used to distinguish between media in the gallery. It is based on source media, not web preview file (e.g, video/mp4). Hence, it must start with 'image' or 'video' (e.g., image/jpg, video/octet-stream). Capitalization does not matter. If not available, auto guessing based on acquisition - if defined, else based on presence of photo_src and video_src. | |
photo_src | URL to the web version of the photo file. Fallback if scrset is not given or not supported by the browser. | |
photo_srcset | HTML5 img srcset attribute. Recommended to use width descriptor. | |
video_src | String or list with strings containing URLs to media representations. Recommended to use a list for streams, where each list item is a fallback if the previous item was not supported in the browser. Example: [ | |
photo_width | Largest width of photo proxy (same orientation as proxy). | |
photo_height | Largest height of photo proxy (same orientation as proxy). | |
video_width | Largest width of video proxy (same orientation as proxy). | |
video_height | Largest height of video proxy (same orientation as proxy). | |
thumbnail_src | URL to the webvtt file. Thumbnails are shown when pointer hovers over video player seek bar. | |
cover_src | URL to the video cover. | |
cover_srcset | HTML5 img srcset attribute. Recommended to use width descriptor. | |
poster_src | Background poster when loading video in player. If skipped, default viewer based posters are shown. | |
duration | Video duration in human readable format, i.e., 00:16:45. Shown as overlay on video cover. | |
Sharing Feature | ||
persistent_identifier | Media identifier used for the sharing feature in the media gallery. Fallbacks exist when not given. | |
name | File name of the source media file. Assumption: Only once per gallery. Sharing feature: First fallback if no persistent identifier is given. | |
date_time | Sharing feature: Second fallback if no persistent identifier is given to calculate a share id (together with coordinates). |
