  8. Digitasation project

  9. Digitisation targets • By the end of 2013: • A substantial part of the collection of 37M objects will be digitised: 7 million objects; • An infrastructure is in place to continue digitisation.

  10. Challenges • The Budget is € 13.0 million; • The total collection is 37 million objects; • Between 7 million objects will be digitised in detail; • Out of which 2 million in house (digi-streets); • Roughly 5 million objects will be outsourced; • 30 million objects will be “registered” digitally on a high level.

  11. Complexity • How to align the running projects to become host of the integrated end-result (CRS, DAM, LIMS) • How to organise the new projects to become part of the integrated end-result • How to ensure permanent digitisation once the FES budgets end • Focus on meta-data management • Implement Digital Rights Management

  12. A new CRS

  13. A new CRS forzoology and geology Reasons • Data access via one entrance • Maintenance issues • Uniformity of data • User friendliness • Data quality Review of existing systems (2006) • KE-Emu • Specify • Biolink • Recorder 6

  17. FromArchive: Reconstructed data: Objects in database: Time period & aim expedition The aim was a scientific expedition to gather more information on the soil, people, flora and fauna of the south side of the Central Mountains above 2,300 meters. It took place between August 1912 till May 1913. Finally, on 21st February 1913, they reached the top of Mount Wilhelmina (Mt. Trikora) at 4,700 meters.
