Image Collections

DigitalM's functionality consists of key features specifically tailored to help you organize, maintain and share your image collections. The system stores an unlimited number of images, their associated information and assigned categorization schemes. In addition, you no longer have to worry about the wrong information appearing in your collection. With DigitalM's Approval Workflow process, you can approve image content prior to its inclusion.

Image Views

The image viewer and light table allow you to quickly open one or multiple images for zooming and comparison capabilities. View every detail of your collection with the advanced zoom, quick zoom and auto arrangement functions of the Image Viewer. Once the images are in the system, you can create customized groupings of your collection items for presentations, photo albums and lectures. Your visual archives in various humanities and sciences fields--art, architecture, geography, history, biology--will become a sophisticated collection in which you can manage, access and use via the Internet.

Collection Management
Image Details		Define and store key information about your images such as artist, architects, chronology, country of origin, resolution, etc.
Advanced Searches		Use both a general and an advanced search that allows you to pick the collections you want to search, the fields on which you want to search, and the values for which you want to search.
Workflow Engine		Allow users to upload and update image information but not include them in your collection until you have approved the image or the changes.
Security and Administration
Security Levels		A user's security level determines his or her access to functionality and modules within the system.   You can define an infinite number of security levels.
Integration		Integrate your image listings and search with your web site.  Allow outside users view only access to your image collections.
Dropdown Values		Define your own Architect, Artist, Building, Country, State, Subject, Chronology Codes and Topic information.  Then when you update the information, it will automatically update the associated images.
Access Lists		The access list determines what a user can do to a specific data record.  Some user may only be able to view certain content pages while others can update and delete them.
Image Viewers and Presentations
Compare Images		Upload multiple images into the image views and light tables and use the zoom and arrange features to compare the images.
Zooming		Pan and zoom images to view the minutest detail.  You can zoom the entire image or zoom in on one section of the image.
Annotations		Add annotations to any of your images through the image viewer.
Presentation Creator		Create presentations, photo albums, and lectures with images from your image collection.  Select what information to display about each image and even add your own notes.
Printing and Reporting
Custom Reports		Create customized reports to meet your specific needs.  Generate dollar based reports to quantify the collection worth or image collection detail reports and summaries.
Labels		Print labels for file folders related to your images or associated artists and architects.
Card Catalogs		Print card catalog cards for slide or image library management.
