OXCRI: University of Oxford Mini-Project Report
OXCRI Project Report
Description:
Oxford University Computing Services, in collaboration with the Oxford University Careers Service and the Department of Continuing Education, developed REST web services to deliver information about Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses from university departments using the XCRI format.
The primary data delivery utilized PHP templates in front of a relational database. The project also experimented with HTML scraping, conversion to XML, and dynamic filtering using XSLT.
In addition to data provision, the project:
- Re-implemented the XCRI CAP schema using the ISO RELAX NG schema language
- Enhanced the XCRI CAP schema with Schematron rules to implement business logic and tested dual-mode validation using ISO NVDL
- Developed filters to display XCRI data in KML format on Google Earth and Google Maps
