ISO 19264‑1 is the first part of a multi-part of International Standard which specifies a method for analysing quality of imaging systems from a single image of a specified test target in the area of cultural heritage imaging.
ISO 19264‑1 specifies specifications regarding which characteristics are measured, how they are measured and how the results are presented, and these are used for scanners and digital cameras which are used for digitization of cultural heritage material.
ISO 19264‑1 on reflective originals is relevant to:
Electronic imaging systems, such as scanners and cameras, can be used for digitizing physical records, e.g. documents, pictures, maps. The resulting digital images can be more or less accurate in terms of how well they reproduce the original record’s tones, colours, details, etc. These and other characteristics of a digital image can be assessed by imaging systems’ quality analysis.
ISO 19264‑1 provides imaging systems’ quality analysis can assist those developing or acquiring imaging systems with the assessment and verification of system performance, such as the specified resolution and dynamic range of a scanner, and the comparative performance of different imaging systems.
ISO 19264‑1 helps you in measuring the imaging systems of your scanners and digital cameras and helps in evaluating the performance of the systems.
ISO 19264‑1 specifies imaging systems’ quality analysis which can be used for assessing accuracy and controlling imaging consistency over time.
As a result, high-performance archiving systems through standardised methods in compliance with ISO 19264‑1 can help achieve accuracy of digital reproductions as well as improve your product and technology development initiatives that could help scale your business.
