EDIT

for providing universalviewer with manifest files (see #5083) all services returning media lists like portal/taxon/{uuid}/media should offer to return iiif manifest files.

It makes sense to bundle all these new iiif manifest services under a new service root path:

/iiif/.../manifest

which of course will also be available as

/iiif/.../manifest.json

The service should enrich the manifest with metadata stored within the images. Metadata for images is provided by the REST service media/{uuid}/metadata which causes the media file to be downloaded. This service should first of all check the server hosting the media object for metadata. The new image server at the BGBM should be able to deliver this information.

• IIIF Presentation API (specs for the manifest file)

• Manifest Validator: http://iiif.io/api/presentation/validator/

• iiif-apis contains model classes for all currently available IIIF API entities
