Take the best care of the most valuable multimedia assets and prepare for a multiplatform distribution

A key element for MAM solutions is the parametric data model, both for the content cataloguing area and for the business processes definition. Therefore, VSN has developed a new generation of multimedia MAM-Archive solution to strengthen its new Spider framework, allowing the use of different data modeling structures in all of them.

VSNARCHIVE features parametric metadata capabilities and the possibility to deal with all kinds of digital assets, each of them defined with its own user-defined metadata set. This metadata is dynamic as it can evolve along the applied business processes or be customized when any department requires it.

Cataloguing

Journalists can start pre-cataloguing the high-resolution clips which have been previously stored in the servers' hard drives. The cataloguing process is achieved through the use of templates; adding general metadata such as description, category, journalist, cameras, and keywords. It includes digital rights management (DRM) and partial cataloguing through segments within the same item.

Archiving

Cataloguers archive materials by organizing and organising them in categories. At the same time, VSNARCHIVE generates a low resolution copy of the materials to be kept on-line permanently.

In off-line storage, the system (VSNSTORAGE MANAGER) keeps track of the content, its status and where it is.

Search

Intelligent Google-like fast search plus a powerful advanced search based on logical operators are allowed.

The user interface (VSNEXPLORER) is simple and intuitive, the screen is configured according to the user's permissions and the applications that can be accessed.
