DigitizationArtefactZone

Definition

DigitizationArtefactZone: contains any type of item external to the document itself, but due to the process of digitisation, such as rulers or color tables added to help analyse the image.

Subtypes

Suggested values include:

  • DigitizationArtefactZone:ruler
  • DigitizationArtefactZone:testCard

Examples

  • DigitizationArtefactZone:ruler

  • DigitizationArtefactZone:ruler

Justification

These kind of artefacts are quite common in digitised manuscripts, and need to be separated from the document itself.
