Zissor application slashes enhancement costs

Newspaper Archive digitization projects often work with source material of challenging quality - so challenging that manual enhancement work is necessary to provide required quality for proper article zoning, text and title recognition level, and text sequence. Enhancement costs often account for as much as 2/3 of digitization project costs. A Zissor breakthrough will speed up and save costs for manual intervention work.

Zissor tools have always been at the front of the field with regards to ease and speed of use for this work. Now we have developed functions for increased automation in the enhancement application. Tests show reduced operator time by more than half leading to a proportionate potential reduction of the enhancement costs. The release of a new Quality Application tool will significantly impact enhancement capacity and costs in the delivery of newspaper digitisation projects.

Newest tool in the drive for efficient segmentation of newspaper is now in operation at Zissor Service Center at Lysaker in Norway.

This is a technological breakthrough in this industry and speeds up;
