: How to describe pixel width of a VideoObject or MediaObject in Schema.org and JSON-LD? Using Schema.org vocabulary in JSON-LD, when describing the height and width dimensions of a VideoObject,

@Sherry384

The height and width properties expect either a Distance or a QuantitativeValue value.

Both of your corresponding examples are correct:




Distance value:

"width": "100 px"

QuantitativeValue value (E37 is the UN/CEFACT Common Code for "pixel"):

"width": {
"@type": "QuantitativeValue",
"unitCode": "E37",
"value": "100"
}



For a consumer that supports both ways, these should be equivalent.

Possible risk when using a Distance value: a consumer might expect the unit to be written in a different way than px (e.g., px., pixel etc.). I guess there is no standard abbreviation (at least the Wikipedia article Pixel doesn’t specify one). You don’t have this risk with a QuantitativeValue value, because the units are standardized in the UN/CEFACT Common Code.
