Table 2 shows the distribution of the work load between the work packages. There is one work package which
clearly jumps out, this is WP4 which is the most laborious. WP4 includes the tasks post-processing, metadata,
and database population which are all time-consuming. A special focus of Imperialle is put on the quality of the
metadata. An image in the web without appropriate annotations makes no sense and annoys the user. We have
more than 45,000 objects which need to be combined with precise and comprehensive metadata in at least two
languages. For many objects the metadata needs to be investigated. All participants claimed to have some effort
also with the “project management” (WP8). This effort is honoured with a maximum of 2 person/months.
