Event TypeVocabularyInternal/ ExternalDescription
capturePREMISexternalThe process whereby a repository actively obtains an object.
compressionPREMISexternalThe process of coding data to save storage space or transmission time.
creationPREMISinternalThe act of creating a new object.
deaccessionPREMISexternalThe process of removing an object from the inventory of a repository.
decompressionPREMISexternalThe process of reversing the effects of compression.
decryptionPREMISexternalThe process of converting encrypted data to plain text.
deletionPREMISinternalThe process of removing an object from repository storage.
digital signature validationPREMISexternalThe process of determining that a decrypted digital signature matches an expected value.
fixity checkPREMISbothThe process of verifying that an object has not been changed in a given period.
ingestionPREMISinternalThe process of adding objects to a preservation repository.
message digest calculationPREMISexternalThe process by which a message digest ("hash") is created
  • In Fedora 4, this is done automatically when a non-RDF resource is created, which probably doesn't merit a separate event. However, message digest calculation can also be done externally before uploading content (to use the message digest to verify uncorrupted transfer), which would be a separate event.
migrationPREMISexternalA transformation of an object creating a version in a more contemporary format.
normalizationPREMISexternalA transformation of an object creating a version more conducive to preservation.
replicationPREMISexternalThe process of creating a copy of an object that is, bit-wise, identical to the original.
validationPREMISexternalThe process of comparing an object with a standard and noting compliance or exceptions.
virus checkPREMISexternalThe process of scanning a file for malicious programs.
metadata modificationUCSD internalModifying an RDF source by posting RDF, using SPARQL Update, etc. 
content modificationUCSDinternalModifying a non-RDF source by uploading updated content.
content removalUCSDinternalRemoving a non-RDF source from the repository.
derivative creationUCSD externalGenerating derivative versions of content files.
indexingUCSD externalGenerating a derivative of an object, such as a Solr index record, updating an external triplestore, etc. possibly using the fcrepo-camel or fcrepo-message-consumer components.

New Types

We are proposing four event types not in PREMIS, and also a distinction between internal and external events.  The event types are defined as skos:Concept instances in the PREMIS eventType scheme following the requirements of the PREMIS ontology.  Below are the URIs and types for these new concepts:
