EVALUATING IMAGING QUALITY Federal Agencies Digitization Initiative – Still Image Working Group Presented by Michael Stelmach Library of Congress, Office of Strategic Initiatives March, 2009
The Challenge • Define Content Categories • Define Imaging Objectives • Decide on Measures of Quality • Identify Standard Methods to Derive Measures • Design Tools to Evaluate Image Performance and Quality • Create Standard Methods of Evaluation
Progress • Detailed definitions established for content categories and imaging objectives • Performance measures to be captured and defined (current) • Performance measurement standards identified • Tools developed to validate required image performance measures to actual values
Roadmap to Image Requirements – Content and Objectives Combined with…
Advances Image Specs From • Color vs. Monochromatic • Bit Depth • Pixel Density
To…. Specific to content and objectives…
Image Performance Measure – Tools • Digital Image Conformance Evaluation (DICE) System • Targets providing known references • Device Target – Imaging Device Performance • Object Target – Actual Image Quality • Evaluation/Validation Software – LabVIEW-based • Data export for use in SQC/SPC
More to Come… To keep up with our progress and submit your suggestions, please visit http://digitizationguidelines.gov/
