 # Uploader to automate the Upload and Import of Objects in museum-digital via WebDAV
 
+The purpose of this app will be to allow museums to more simply automate the upload of
+their collection data to museum-digital. It is thus targetted at museums using museum-digital
+as a publication platform, while using another collection management system.
+
+While collection management systems differ, an automatic import to museum-digital works in
+a uniform way. Import data is uploaded via WebDAV, an import is configured using a text file. ([See here](https://de.handbook.museum-digital.info/import/importe-selbst-durchfuehren.html))
+
+This part of the automatic importing can thus be solved in a one-fits-all solution here.
+Collection management system-specific export scripts are necessary to present the present
+app with data to upload. The export itself is thus out of the scope of the tool described here.

+EasyDB has a feature for automating exports and usually comes with a built-in image server.
+Esp. if the image server is publicly accessible, the requirements for automating imports to
+md (automated, scheduled export to a directory) are thus available in the app without the
+need for an additional connector.
