Simple vs. complex assets

Simple assets are assets that does not have constituent parts or "child" assets. Examples are individual photographs, audio files, movies, or single-page print material. In comparison, a complex asset contains constituent parts which will have individual PIDs in the DAMS, e. g. the issues of a journal or the pages of a book.

Simple asset content models

In order to appropriately store, manage and disseminate digitized physical assets, the DAMS uses content models for different classes of media. The following content models are available for processing simple assets:

  • AUDIO
  • LARGE IMAGE
  • PDF
  • VIDEO
  • BINARY

See the documentation page on content models for details on each model and the file types supported.
