Glass Plate Negative Digitization FAQS
1. How are glass plates transported and stored during the project?
We offer secure pickup and return, using cushioned, archival-grade boxes with silica desiccants and anti-shock padding. Internally, plates are stored in climate-stabilized environments with limited access and chain-of-custody tracking.
2. What kind of metadata do you embed with each scan?
We include Dublin Core, EXIF, or custom schemas, depending on your cataloging needs. Metadata can be delivered as sidecar XML, CSV inventories, or directly embedded in TIFF/JPEG2000 headers for compatibility with DAMs or archival platforms.
3. Can you handle large glass plate formats or panoramic plates?
Yes. Our flatbed and overhead systems accommodate oversized plates, including 8×10″, panoramic formats, or irregular dimensions. We ensure full edge-to-edge capture with calibration specific to large-format photography.
4. Do you provide support for archive-level ingestion and delivery?
Absolutely. We deliver TIFF masters, access derivatives, and metadata in formats compatible with your existing systems — including PDF/A, JP2, CSV, and naming conventions suitable for upload into digital libraries or archival CMS.
