This sounds very similar to Harvard's Zone1 project: http://osc.hul.harvard.edu/liblab/proj/zone-1

Hi there, Apologies for broadcast. After shunting this message down various listservs to my heart's content, I thought I should pop an email out to the library coding community that might be interested in a tool we developed last year with funding from the Australian National Data Service<http://www.ands.org.au/>. The tool is though likely to come in useful for those in the cultural heritage or research sectors liaising with data or information producers. The tool (ExSite9 <http://www.intersect.org.au/exsite9>) is designed for anyone capturing data in the field, that wants to create collection (at minimum for convenience) and item level metadata (often more desirable for researchers or creatives) and bundle that up as a submission information package (SIP viz OAIS model) to transfer to a digital repository or archive. Exsite9 could be used in association with collections of material digitised in a workflow or with digital archives coming in on hard drives. The code can be downloaded from the Intersect Australia GitHub space<https://github.com/IntersectAustralia/exsite9>along with a swag of other applications developed and made open source thanks to ANDS funding (and federal stimulus spending). Good wishes, Ingrid ps. any replies or questions to: ingrid.ma...@intersect.org.au (I use this gmail a/c for lists)
