Getting granular: how digital preservation deposit drives discovery and delivery Teresa Soleau J. Paul Getty Trust, United States of America
Getty Digital is collaborating with the GRI on a IIIF-based project re-envisioning the way digitized archives are accessed, resulting in some mental gymnastics to create structure in the preservation system that is semantically sound, standards-based, and can be used as a source for granular exploration of the GRI’s rich archives.
