Information Management and Archiving

We implement projects that develop information management methods and environments. Through these projects, we improve the usability and quality of digital content and develop methods and services that utilize artificial intelligence. Our partners include libraries, archives, museums, research and educational organizations, businesses, and non-profit organizations. Based in Mikkeli, we work nationally and internationally. Our projects are funded, among other sources, by EU structural funds and Interreg programs.

We are developing automated content analysis, text recognition, and visualisation as information management methods. We apply both machine learning and rule-based approaches. We further develop a wide range of materials: already digitised text documents, photographs, videos, and historical periodicals, emails, and social media data. You can explore the results of Digitalia’s development work on our demo website via the link below. We offer both service demonstrations and open-source code for, among other things, tools for processing materials, AI applications, and visualisations of historical materials

We offer evidence-based information and support for your organisation’s information management needs. Request a quote for dedicated R&D services, for example, the capture and migration of digital materials to an archive-ready format. We also provide software and AI solutions for information management, for example, for the automatic annotation of materials. We can also advise on the use of the open-source tools we utilise. The precise scope and implementation of the specialist service will always be agreed based on your needs. Our subsidiary, Disec Oy, provides digital archiving and digitisation services.

Digitalia offers open historical datasets from the National Library of Finland. The digi.kansalliskirjasto.fi service includes historical newspapers and periodicals published in Finland, as well as ephemera and other materials from the National Library in digital format. In addition to browsing and search functions, a download tool and pre-prepared open data packages are available.

We are developing continuous learning solutions in the field of information management. We organise a free Digital Information Summer School annually. The Digitization Developer training, built within the JoDi project implemented at Digitalia, is available via Xamk Pulse, and the Digitisation Skills Network, open to all interested parties, operates on the Skillhive platform. Our projects also offer events and content which could increase your competences and your organisation’s capabilities.
