Digitise Africa
Digitise Africa supplies capture systems, quality-control tools, and archival storage to institutions that must digitise original material without damaging it, and keep a measurable record of the result. The range is for archives, museums, libraries, universities, and scientific collections — not for office scanning or general photography.
Digitise Africa is the equipment-sales division of Africa Media Online. Africa Media Online digitises and preserves African collections, and keeps ownership with the custodian. Digitise Africa sells the equipment.
Cultural heritage imaging. Camera systems for flat copy, bound volumes, film and transparencies, and object documentation. Built for libraries, archives, museums, and service bureaus that need high-resolution files and a controlled, repeatable workflow.
Targets, fixtures, and analysis software for checking colour, tone, and spatial resolution on reflective and transmissive material. Used to measure a setup rather than judge it by eye.
Quality assurance for heritage imaging, led by Hans van Dormolen, author of the Metamorfoze Preservation Imaging Guidelines. Technical guidance, compliance checks, training, and the targets and software used in that work. Not a scanner brand.
Professional storage from production to archive: disk systems and LTO tape, including disk-to-disk-to-tape workflows.
Precision camera supports, copy stands, and repro accessories for overhead and macro capture. Not a conservation book cradle.
Tell us what you are capturing, how fragile it is, and roughly how much of it there is. We come back with a specification. We do not publish a consumer catalogue.
