25. Videotape to Digital +Acceptable Quality +Economical +Continuous 30 fps => 3 foot interval -3 to 6 hours time to digitize 60 miles -Hundreds of tapes to archive -Limited resolution

26. Direct to Digital +Not limited to 640 x 480 pixels +No additional time to convert +Sharper images -High Storage Requirements -Longer intervals between images

28. Direct to Digital

29. Direct to Digital vs. Videotape to Digital

30. Conclusion Direct to digital is clearly superior IF You can afford the storage

31. Digital Storage Requirements High Res 640 x 480 = 900 Kbytes/image Mega Pixel 1300 x 1030 = 4 Mbytes/image

32. Image Compression High Res 640 x 480 = 900 Kbytes/image @ 20:1 = 45 KB Mega Pixel 1300 x 1030 = 4 Mbytes/image @ 20:1 = 200 KB @ 40:1 = 100 KB

33. High Res Uncompressed vs. Compressed

34. Size Comparison

35. Mega Pixel Uncompressed vs. Compressed

36. Storage Systems Analog Video Tape Tape = 100 miles 10,000 miles = 100 tapes Disc Removable = 20 GB = 4,000 miles DVD = 4.7GB = 940 miles CD ROM = 650 MB = 130 miles Digital Linear Tape DLT = 70 GB = 14,000 miles

37. Conclusions Compression rates have little effect on quality at 20:1 to 40:1 Major advantage of high resolution is the ability to zoom in on details Storage is feasible Digital is superior
