Digital Imaging and Electronic Document Management

3 day continuing education class at the University of Wisconsin, Madison Campus, Pyle Center Dates: Thursday June 10 to Saturday June 12, 1999 Time: 8:30 am - 4:30 PM Fee: CEUs: 2.4 CEUs. Registration deadline: May 24.

This course is for records managers, librarians, and archivists who have been assigned to specify, install, or manage a document imaging system, but who are non-technical professionals. Document imaging is the process of taking documents out of file cabinets and off shelves and storing them in a computer. In this three-day course you will gain an understanding of how document imaging can be used and managed in both large and small scale organizations.

You will learn about:

• The technology of scanning, importing, transmitting, storing, protecting, locating, retrieving, viewing, printing, and preserving documents for document imaging systems and digital libraries.
• Image and document formats, multimedia, rich text, GIS (Geographic Information Systems), CAD (Computer Aided Design), and image enabled databases.
• System design issues in hardware, software, ergonomics, and workflow.
• Emerging technologies such as the DVD Digital Video Disk and very high speed Internet, Intranet, and extranet links and protocols.
• The implications of Windows 98 and Windows 2000 for system design.

Several system designs will be done based on system requirements provided by participants. You are encouraged to bring the requirements for your planned document imaging system to the class.
