Zusammenfassung: | A digital preservation system (
10
) for accepting a digital data record as input, for writing the data record in human-readable form onto a preservation-quality medium (
210
), for storage of the medium (
210
), and for retrieval of the data record from the medium (
210
). The system (
10
) is modular, allowing scaling of the system (
10
), allowing preferential selection of specific image handling components, and allowing replacement of complete subsystems while minimizing the likelihood of data loss. The digital preservation system (
10
) preserves a data record in human-readable form, along with an associated metadata record, allowing the human-readable preserved data record to be readable in the distant future, independent of specific reading hardware. |
