AMIGOS Imaging Workshops in New Mexico and Texas

INTRODUCTION TO IMAGING AND IMAGING TECHNOLOGY IN LIBRARIES AND
ARCHIVES

This two-day workshop provides an overview of digital imaging, and
gives participants a concrete demonstration of the technology and
process of imaging, and the effect these have on the creation of high
quality digital images. The workshop covers the selection of
appropriate materials, guidelines and benchmarks for image quality,
file formats, headers and compression. A hands-on introduction to
digital imaging hardware, software, and storage media and devices is a
core component of the workshop, along with a comparison of different
technologies and workstation configurations, examination of workflow
and outsourcing conversion issues and the search and retrieval,
including indexing, metadata, and networking of images.
