Video database provides facilities to share, manipulate and retrieve video data through meta-data that describes the structural and semantic information of video data. There are many attempts for modeling video information in view of database. Since meta-data on video information is unformalized and complex, they have many difficulties in navigation and management of video database.
In this paper, we propose a new video data model for news video information. For an integrated view of news video information, we classify queries and define operations through extending meta-data. Since the proposed video data model provides formalized meta-data schema, it facilitates the retrieve of video data and provides easy maintenance of news information. In addition, it supports efficient navigation and sharing of video data. We implemented the proposed news video database by using hypermedia interface and UniSQL.
