SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING AN ELECTRONIC IMAGE FILE

摘要

A method and system that organizes and transmits data between systems is provided. The method and system include generating, at a computing system, a graphical user interface including a plurality of user selectable image elements enabling receipt of user data inputs that are used in creating configuration data object. The configuration data object includes structure data that creates a table in database that stores metadata associated with an image file. The structure data defines a format for the table including at least one type of metadata to be stored therein. Monitoring data identifies a location on a data store to be monitored and destination data identifies a location that the at least one type of file is to be transmitted. The system and method also includes monitoring, using the monitoring data of the configuration data object, the identified monitoring location to detect a presence of at least one image file received from an image processing device and detecting, at the monitoring location, a presence of a metadata file associated with the at least one image file and determining if a sufficient amount of metadata is included in the metadata file. In response to detecting a sufficient amount of metadata is included in the metadata file, automatically transmitting the at least one image file and metadata file to the destination location identified in the destination data and creating a table in a database based on the structure data and storing the at least one type of metadata therein.

1. A method comprising:
generating, at a computing system, a graphical user interface including a plurality of user selectable image elements enabling receipt of user data inputs that are used in creating configuration data object including
structure data that creates a table in database that stores metadata associated with an image file, the structure data defining a format for the table including at least one type of metadata to be stored therein;monitoring data identifying a location on a data store to be monitored; anddestination data identifying a location that the at least one type of file is to be transmitted; monitoring, using the monitoring data of the configuration data object, the identified monitoring location to detect a presence of at least one image file received from an image processing device; detecting, at the monitoring location, a presence of a metadata file associated with the at least one image file and determining if a sufficient amount of metadata is included in the metadata file; and in response to detecting a sufficient amount of metadata is included in the metadata file, automatically
transmitting the at least one image file and metadata file to the destination location identified in the destination data, andcreating a table in a database based on the structure data and storing the at least one type of metadata therein; and in response to detecting that an insufficient amount of metadata is included in the metadata file, automatically
generating a graphical user interface for receiving data inputs from a user enabling a user to modify a value of at least one type of metadata identified as being insufficient and updating the modified metadata file based on data inputs received from the user;transmitting the at least one image file and metadata file to the destination location identified in the destination data, andcreating a table in a database based on the structure data and storing the at least one type of metadata therein.
