Solution
Visual Analysis & Collection Research
With visual analysis, you make image material in your collection easier to search and richer in content. By making visual characteristics, patterns and similarities visible, this application supports collection research, interpretation and new ways of providing access.
Visual Analysis & Collection Research helps you examine image material in a new way. By making visual similarities, patterns and characteristics visible, AI supports the recognition of relationships within the collection. This creates new access points for research and disclosure, while preserving human interpretation and curatorial control.
What it delivers
Deeper collection insight
Gain a clearer view of visual patterns, relationships and recurring characteristics within your collection.
Faster exploration of image material
Support research and selection by analysing large volumes of visual material more efficiently.
New research questions
Discover relationships that invite further interpretation, comparison and contextualisation.
Richer access
Use visual analysis as an additional layer alongside metadata, descriptions and classifications.
Control and quality
AI does the preparatory work. Results remain reviewable and are configured around your sources, fields, terminology and quality criteria. Where relevant, the source or passage remains traceable. Your organisation decides what is adjusted, approved and ultimately used.

Application
Visual Search
In museum and heritage collections, the image itself often plays a central role. Yet visual properties such as form, colour, composition, technique or repetition are not always fully captured in metadata or descriptions.

Video segmentation
Video segmentation makes long or complex video material more accessible and usable. By dividing recordings into meaningful segments, video becomes clearer, easier to search and easier to use for research, access and public engagement.

Image analysis
Image analysis makes visual collection material more accessible, more richly described and easier to search. By automatically analysing images for content, characteristics and patterns, an additional layer of insight emerges to support research, access and public use.
