You do not need Zoomify for the zoom function in AmeriCommerce online stores or to use our photo resizer technology. Note: Zoomify is different from the Zoom function in AmeriCommerce online stores. The basic Zoomify version is free and can be downloaded from their website. This gives you the advantage of letting customers see the products in great detail, without having to wait for a large image to load.

The positive outcomes of this work is a reduction in the affected agencies’ storage and the cumulative burden of these obsolete files on the servers, plus Christine gained new technological skills that she can carry forward in her career as a Library Technician.Zoomify is a 3rd party integration. With Christine’s work complete, the ODW team was able to purge a considerable overhead of corrupt and cumbersome Zoomify folders from the database. There will always be advancements in technology standards and these inevitably require adjustment and retroconversion activities. This was important database work that will ensure the integrity and currency of the files uploaded to the clients’ digital collections and sites going forward. The project consisted of a bunch of repetitive tasks that were not able to be automated and had to be manually manipulated/updated. The Dezoomify project concentrated mostly on file creation and replacement (for example: digital collections from libraries’ local history/genealogy departments), and to an extent included working on the Metadata for the files submitted. The JP2 files open in a IIIF viewer and provide excellent Pan-Zoom capabilities, like the slideshow below illustrates.

We were able to do this systematically for the most part, but some stubborn items required manual intervention and conversion. The trick was that we needed to go through our system and replace the old Zoomify folders with JP2 files. So, any user uploading full images, details, or pages can upload the considerably lighter and mobile-friendly JP2 file and it displays with all the pan, zoom and rotate options people expect for viewing this kind of material online. Luckily, as technology has advanced and streamlined, the standard is now to use JPEG-2000 (JP2) files that automatically trigger the open-source IIIF (International Image Interoperable Framework)viewer in VITA.
