Metadata Enhancement
Metadata Enhancement and Data Visualization
Metadata enhancement and data visualization often leads to important insights. While this provides greater context about a wide-range of experience, the truth is clients based in different sectors and industries face similar problems. I have worked with dozens of clients, and each one had a problem or need that helped develop my understanding of best practice.
The data visualizations below show the depth and breadth of my experience. The data provides greater clarity and opens to a new interpretations of information.
I’ve gained valuable experience working with a variety of archives including public corporations; private companies; not-for-profits; advocacy groups and foundations; professional associations; governmental agencies; schools, colleges and universities; and individuals and families.
Metadata and Data Visualization
As you can see from metadata enhancement and data visualization below, Digital Archivy has well-rounded experience. My expertise is based on experience and knowledge working with a variety of clients.
As a result I have learned how to incorporate other users’ perspectives..
Good archiving starts with you. Reliable recordkeeping adds significant value to institutions. It also can reduce risk of legal and compliance problems. While information is a strategic resource, rot (routine, obsolete and temporary data) is not! In fact, data visualizations help separate the rot from the rest.
From experience and first-hand knowledge, I have knowledge to share. By pairing archival standards and best practice,
we benefit from working with a wide range of users. In addition, we can apply digital archivy to institutions with large haphazardly-stored collections. Our solutions are practical, cost-effective and task-oriented and they have real impact.
Metadata Enhancement and Data Visualization 2
Let’s try it again. This version updates information based on a web re-launch.
In other words, the following data visualization provides another example of metadata enhancement. So by classifying information in new way, we show the depth and breadth of our experience working in archives in many different sectors.
Data Visualization 3
The data above is helpful from a big picture point of view. But it is not useful in showing specific details about strengths.
In other words, it doesn’t separate the Type of sectors. Therefore, in some cases, metadata enhancement requires a simplification based on its usefulness. The chart below provides details in regard to setting priorities for an archivist.
Consequently, we can re-jigger the data with our updated info and new metadata and inputs. So if we change the chart type, it looks something like this.
Visualization Is the Metadata Spice of Digital Archivy
As you can see from the chart above, we have wide ranging experience in a variety of archives. These include companies creating and distributing media and entertainment, cloud computing, consumer goods, and much more. I believe my greatest strength is based on my background knowledge and my first-hand observations from previous clients.
