Archive Digitization Experts

Public, private, personal, and corporate archives are critical institutions in the preservation of Heritage. However, archives are often extremely specific in focus, and vary greatly in terms of size, composition, and mission. As such, they require carefully customized digitization plans, which require a diverse set of skills to design and execute.

DT Heritage is the premiere source for archival digitization solutions. Our expertise includes everything from project management, library science, and knowledge of digitization methods, to a deep understanding and appreciation of the history and relevance of a particular archive’s collection and goals moving forward.

Our ability to develop custom end-to-end digitization solutions to achieve your institution’s unique goals has led to trusted partnerships with the Walt Disney Archives, National Geographic Archives, the National Archive and Records Administration, and many more.

For institutions looking to outsource some or all of their digitization, our service division, DT Heritage, has extensive experience working with diverse archive collections.

Imaging Technology

We can digitize anything at a level of detail you can’t get anywhere else. You have to see it to believe it. Check out our product videos to see the equipment in action.

DT Element

Meet the DT Element, it’s more than a copy stand – a complete digitization platform. The stand, camera, and column tightly integrate with our software for fast and easy preservation-grade digitization. Our DT Element complies with FADGI 4-star, Metamorfoze Strict, ISO 19264 image quality, and JHOVE file format standards. What can you digitize with the DT Element? Nearly everything. It’s equally at home scanning bound materials, manuscripts, flat artwork, maps, translucent materials such as film or glass plate negatives, as well as specimens. The camera can even be removed to capture installation artwork, in-situ art, architecture, and more.

DT Versa

Meet the DT Versa, our solution designed for the digitization of all kinds of collections. The stand, camera, and column seamlessly integrate with our software for fast and easy preservation-grade digitization. The Versa allows digitization with or without glass contact. With the Versa hardtop in place, all scanning is done 100% contact-free. Removing that hardtop reveals a conservation-friendly glass top with a user-settable maximum and with such precise control of the object that the operator can raise the object to lightly kiss the glass.

DT Atom

The DT Atom is the world’s most versatile digitization platform. The DT Atom is a table-top digitization platform that can adapt to nearly any material type. All DT products are modular and the DT Atom is no exception, with most of its adaptability owed to its removable tabletop. We call the DT Atom the “building block of digitization.” Simply swap out the standard reflective top for one of our seven accessory tops, to handle books, loose material, film, glass plates, textiles, maps, and more. Nearly anything in an encyclopedic collection can be scanned on a DT Atom.
