Luna's Insight software hasn't been mentioned in this discussion, and as a MCN supporter, I wanted to raise Insight's visibility for expanding the functionality of your Collection Management System to support an institutions wide range of imaging needs.
Insight® is software for visual collections which revolutionizes the way leading educational and cultural heritage institutions archive, research and teach. Insight supports easy to implement collections where Museums and Archives can leverage source data from existing resources. Insight Studio With Insight Studio, collection builders can quickly and easily create collections which represent content from their institution s Collection Management System (CMS). Using Insight Studio, export a data template for Excel or FileMaker, populate the template, and import the data directly into Insight. Once complete, you can import the images and other multimedia. Images are processed and then available in multiple derivative formats including JPEG2000 perfect for use on websites, print material, or other collateral, as well as Insight. Once the media and metadata are imported, you have immediate access to everything through the Insight Java Client or BrowserInsight. Additional descriptive data can be imported or updated via Insight Studio or added through the Inscribe cataloguing tool. Personal Insight End users can quickly and easily create personal collections. Personal Insight is built on Insight s infrastructure and supports core functionality including, cross-collection searching, presentations, and annotations. Interoperability For repurposing content beyond Insight, resources in Insight collections are available through other applications with the Insight XML Gateway The Gateway allows XML aware applications to search and use Insight collections as a resource - as well as provides a method for incorporating Insight content and capabilities Insight s advanced functionality Image export Saving Groups to Folders Creating Annotations and Links within Insight Searching Annotations & Links Image Measurement and Scale Sharing Content Creating Dynamic Presentations Sharing Presentations Exporting Presentations Creating Personal Collections Nancy Harm Regional Account Manager Luna Imaging, Inc.
