Digitization Workflow

Since 2004 the workflow of the Munich Digitization Center is managed by the "Zentrale Erfassungs- und Nachweisdatenbank" (ZEND), a scaleable selfmade workflow tool based on a MySQL database. The ZEND manages the control of all pre-defined workflows such as data exchange with the catalogue, allocation of an URN, automatic image converting, automatic and manual indexing, generating of the web presentation and, last but not least, the automatised archival storage of all data. Additional XML Frameworks allow the implementation of meta search functions and the allocation of digital objects inside subject portals.
