Translations:Digitization, Preservation and Ingest/78/en

Clearly, we will be considering different sets of formats depending on the type of items we are digitizing—documents, photographs, video, etc. The scope of format options can be overwhelming, and there is no universally ideal solution for each type of digitized content. The selection, again, depends on the specific needs and circumstances of the archive. Nevertheless, some formats have a proven high robustness and resilience to change. Figure 11 provides an overview of such formats for the most frequently digitized types of physical items: documents, pictures, audio, and video.
