Abstract

The paper identifies and describes issues involved in creating archives of engineering images accessible via the world wide web. Digital imaging and the web are two key information technologies of the 1990s, and offer new opportunities. The paper reviews five key issues relating to digital image archives: image representation, image processing, documentation, searching, and standards. Particular attention is given to approaches being developed by museums and other arts organizations. The paper also briefly describes and contrasts web-based image archives under development. Image enhancement and query by image content are identified as particularly important issues.
