Image management is the management and control of raster images (generated
by image scanning and raster conversions of electronic data created in
other formats), vector data (from CAD and illustration systems), and multi-media
data (audio and video images).
There is a spectrum of image management software ranging from programs
that just transfer images from the camera to the computer to those that
manage huge collections of images. Software can scan folders and drives
and quickly generate catalogs of thumbnails and information about the
images in the system. These programs can acquire images from the camera,
view the Images on the system, catalog the images, edit and post thumbnails
of the images on the web. |
