metaDAM is a Digital Asset Management system for the secure archiving and management of photographs, illustrations, images, videos, documents and 3D objects. Its scalable architecture and agile material description tools make it a strategic ally for the organisation of small, medium and large multi-format archives in multimedia data lakes, which act as single access spaces for the collection of digital objects and the distribution of additional services.
metaDAM is an application that “bridges the gap” between user devices and digital objects, be it photographic material, vector-format illustrations, documents, images or videos.
With its user-friendly interface, the platform takes care of uploading, maintenance and storage (storage policies) and provides both tools for the conversion and administration of the objects and functionalities for using the content.
The primary purpose of metaDAM is to render a digital object independent of its usage by providing a stream (copy) of the object itself, without the access system being able to directly access the original content.
To classify and catalogue digital files on simple interfaces and using descriptive data, tags, categories and folders.
To simplify the publication and distribution of digital assets and content through various channels and formats.
To centralise the storage and protection of digital objects, guaranteeing long-term data security and integrity.
To facilitate and speed up the search and retrieval of specific content within archives that gather large volumes of digital resources.
A wide range of tools that simplify and streamline the flow of digital asset management and distribution
Supports the uploading of different formats, native management of three image resolutions and detailed description of resource identifiers such as names, places, authors, dates, location, rights and licences.
The free text search is concatenated over several fields with filters and result sorting based on metadata such as file type, author, category, subject tag, collection, folder.
It includes tools for editing images, also in bulk and with watermarking. It integrates functions for format conversions and the creation of versions in different resolutions.
metaDAM can be integrated with other applications and is customisable in terms of its interface, management of users and operational roles, and automatic data extraction functionalities where required.
The AI tools automatically analyse metadata associated with digital objects, images and videos, facial recognition, object and text recognition, and content moderation for advanced content management.
It is possible to work on large quantities of media for nomenclature purposes, for exports and uploads, for the creation of media access bytestreams and media metadata access datastreams.
Images can be shown at various levels of magnification, with transmission band optimisation, with correct management of the monitor's colour profile and with alteration of the luminance profile.
This functionality makes it possible to produce dynamic content from digital objects. These derived objects can in turn be grouped into other more complex objects and associated with related services to be processed.
metaDAM does not cease to function upon achieving the successful organisation, security and optimised use of a multimedia archive, but continues to provide useful and effective services over time. The system is designed to easily support both an increase in materials related to additional domains, projects, management structures and stakeholders connected with organisations and companies, and service integrations to be applied for example to policies on distribution, re-use and the publication of digital resources in public, private and local networks and organisations.
