In the last ten years we have become the market leaders in the field of digitising paper documents. This is because our digitisation service greatly simplifies the management and use of archives and helps protect original documents against destruction. To ensure the success of a project, our experienced specialists offer consultation on drafting applications and projects, where necessary.

We carry out our work according to the client's wishes: either on site, or the documents can be sent to us, where we keep and process them in a special high-security room. You can also hire the necessary equipment and software along with our skills and experience. If desired, we can offer hosting services for digital documents in the secure AS Andmevara hosting environment or in information systems we have created.

The digitising process is divided into the following phases:

• scanning of documents;
• image processing (to improve legibility);
• text recognition (so that documents can later be found both quickly and easily);
• concealing information in documents (personal data and other confidential information, according to the client's wishes); and
• entering metadata.

We digitise:

• unbound documents;
• documents that cannot be unbound;
• books;
• maps;
• and more.
