Los Angeles Microfilm & Microfiche Conversion Solution – Digital ReeL Overview

Digital ReeL is a complete Los Angeles, California microfilm, microfiche, and aperture card scanning solution ideal for any organization seeking to digitally convert physical microfilm or microfiche material. Our microfiche/microfilm conversion solutions provide for scanning of your physical microfilm rolls and sheets into a digital format at our secure facility. The Digital ReeL microfiche, aperture card and microfilm scanning solution creates a virtual, digital replica of your original physical material. We digitally scan the entire roll of microfilm and the entire microfiche sheet so you capture everything.

The Digital ReeL microfilm scanning solution includes a software application that emulates microfilm retrieval from a reader/printer. Your users retrieve digital microfilm rolls from a computer, avoiding the hassles that come with physical microfilm and legacy reader/printers.

Even better, Digital ReeL combines full-text searching capabilities with the utilization of your existing indexing methodology (e.g. book/page, case number, roll/frame) to enable users to quickly find information. Even multiple indexing methodologies can be accommodated. If you can’t find it with your existing index, no problem. Use full-text search to locate a record with, say, a last name, street name – any word you want.

Cloud Hosting and Installed Options 

  • Hosted, Software as a Service: Many organizations are working hard to eliminate on-site infrastructure expenses and leverage cloud whenever it makes sense.  With this option, we’ll host your digital records at our two data centers. Your users then log into the Digital ReeL viewer through the web. They can easily search and retrieve needed records.
  • On-site: A classic approach that still makes sense for many organizations. After we scan your microfilm, microfiche or aperture cards, we deliver the digital archive to your IT department. We then work to implement our Digital ReeL application on your infrastructure. Your digital records are then stored and managed as part of your own IT systems and processes. Your employees (and perhaps citizens or customers) then access your digital microfilm/microfiche archive from secure workstations.

Digital ReeL is the Practical Solution for Your Legacy Records

  • Microfiche Scanning Accuracy: each microfilm and microfiche is digitally preserved just as it existed physically so that you know that no records are lost as the digital conversion process takes place.
  • Easily Retrieve Records from Digital ReeL: use the same index you use in your physical archive (e.g. book/page, microfiche number, case number, roll/frame); full-text search included to really unlock the archive for users
  • Adjustable Grayscale Image Enhancement: fine-tune the quality of difficult-to-read images; even images that are impossible to read on your physical microfiche may be brought back to life with this feature.
  • Affordable Los Angeles, California Microfilm Scanning Solution: Digital ReeL is priced per microfiche and microfilm roll; it has been designed with an affordable price point for infrequently accessed records on any type of microform.
