ISCC-CORE typescript implementation library
Decentralised content identifiers through ISO 24138.
The goal of this project is to implement core functions of the new ISCC standard ISO 24138:2024 (“International Standard Content Code”) in Typescript, resulting in a library will be useful for the javascript ecosystem and developers to use and work with this new standard in their project.
ISCC is a similarity preserving fingerprint and identifier for digital media assets. ISCCs are generated algorithmically from digital content, just like cryptographic hashes. However, instead of using a single cryptographic hash function to identify data only, the ISCC uses various algorithms to create a composite identifier that exhibits similarity-preserving properties (soft hash). This supports content deduplication, database synchronization, indexing, integrity verification, timestamping, versioning, data provenance, similarity clustering, anomaly detection, usage tracking, allocation of royalties, fact-checking and other use-cases.
