What constitutes good scanning and how is it measured? Today’s standards for characterizing image performance are based on an image science architecture. This presentation is an easy
to understand introduction to Imaging Science that will provide valuable insights into the digitization process and its evaluation. The presentation is ideal for those involved with digitization projects and production or anyone curious about what is really
being produced by their scanner or digital camera.
About Don Williams
Don Williams worked as a research imaging scientist for Kodak for 25 years until he left to form his own company, Image
Science Associates, in 2006. His work at Kodak focused on both digital and traditional imaging practices across a number of disciplines that included reconnaissance, microfilm,
consumer photography, and professional photography sectors.
His passion lies in the digital image archiving community and in providing resources by which good imaging can be easily practiced and understood. In partnership with his associates,
he has frequently taught and provided educational tools on digital imaging. Don has also published extensively on both technical and policy matters as they relate to digital image fidelity and metrology.
He sits on international standards committees and is fully immersed and involved in the digital image archiving community, frequently contributing to the Federal Agencies Digitization
Guideline Initiative and sits on the Still Image Working Group advisory board.
Don is the editor for ISO 12233, 2nd edition, Spatial Resolution Measurements, Digital Still Cameras, and has acted as co-leader for equivalent performance standards on reflection
and film scanners. His influence has extended into the mobile imaging arena where he was the sector leader for resolution measurement for Camera Phone Image Quality (CPIQ) imaging industry initiative.
He is the creator of GoldenThread: a software package designed to facilitate
total image quality management in digital imaging workflows and ideally suited to work in libraries, museums, archives and galleries.
