PRESERVE

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Ultimate Data Protection
OMNES Preserve is a solution for conserving and preserving all data forms and information over time, releasing organisations from the burden of periodically converting the format in which they are archived.

To achieve this, OMNES Preserve builds on the FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) format, by preserving images and binary data, which allows exporting and disseminating data from the FITS format into all standard formats, thereby enabling the user to manage data while preserving it forever.

OMNES Preserve for Long-Term Preservation, complies with PREMIS and NISO MIX Standards for metadata management. Conversion is simple, to and from FITS, to formats such as JPG, TIFF and PDF, thereby maintaining compatibility with all user systems. The technical metadata is mapped during the conversion process.

Images stored in FITS format are not bound by the software that created them. Any datafile type can go through conversion, whatever the generation software, and be usable forever.

OMNES Preserve is able to archive, search and manage any type of document in the Enterprise, and ensures digital continuity of any content or document over time.
WHAT IS FITS?
Flexible Image Transport System: FITS is a digital file format for storing, transmitting, and processing scientific images. Conceived in the astronomical field by NASA, the format is managed by the IAU (International Astronomical Union) FITS Working Group and embodies all the features for long-term file preservation. FITS overcomes the critical constraints of technological obsolescence, being open standard. Files in FITS format consist of two distinct sections: the first contains text elements (metadata in ASCII format), and the second, data in binary format.

The FITS format provides the opportunity to develop a smooth flow of validation, conversion, control, and management processes for digital image data. The UNI 11845:2022 standard aims to establish which management processes an archive in FITS format must implement for long-term preservation purposes.

PREMIS
PREservation Metadata Information Strategies (Library of Congress) The PREMIS Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata is the international standard for metadata to support the preservation of digital objects and ensure their long-term usability.
OAIS
The Open Archival Information System reference model, is a conceptual framework for an archival system dedicated to preserving and maintaining access to digital information over the longterm. It ensures stability and consistency, including terminology.
Dublin core
Dublin Core is an international metadata standard, formally known as the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, and includes 15 metadata terms. These terms offer expanded cataloging information and improved document indexing for search engine programs.
METS schema
Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS). The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata regarding objects within a digital library, using the XML schema language, which expresses the hierarchical structure of digital library objects.
