Digital audiovisual content has become an important communication channel in Science. The TIB|AV-Portal for audiovisual scientific-technical information meets the requirements to preserve such content and to provide innovative services for search and retrieval. Quality checked audiovisual content from Open Source Geoinformatics communities is constantly being acquired for the portal as a part of TIB's mission to preserve relevant content in applied computer sciences for science, industry, and the general public.

The TIB|AV-Portal
Serving Academia and Industry
– including Geoinformatics
TIB collects audiovisual content related to Geoinformatics:
• Geoinformatics-content in German
• German conference proceedings
• International submissions upon request
Benefits:
• Searchable
• Citable (via DOI)
• Sustainable use (preservation)

Starting Point: OSGeo Projects
• Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) NGO
• Foundation projects who are selected for membership status
based on their active contribution to foundation projects and
governance.
• German Chapter: FOSSGIS e.V.

Variety: Recurring topics in OSGeo conferences
Means of access:
• Attend conference (€) => attend presentation (time)
• Study at home:
• Proceedings or video recordings
• Binge-watch all conference videos ?
• A targeted search within video content is needed..
• ..and a mechanism to share the results with others.

„Is YouTube really a trash bin ?“ - Yes, unfortunately
• URL citations break quickly
• What happens „after“ Youtube?
• Migration to new streaming formats ?
• Human error !
• FOSS4G 2014
• VIMEO as video repository
• „Pro account“ expired
• 100 conference recordings lost
• Long term preservation ?
Leave it to the libraries !
