The Rossland Museum and Discovery Centre (RMDC) completed a high-level inventory of its archival collection in 2020. During this inventory, RMDC identified several sets of items that would benefit from digitization. These collections, previously unknown or under-utilized, consist of 180 level maps of the Rossland mines and a collection of almost 1,000 photo negatives of individuals and scenes related to Rossland’s history. The objectives of this project are to digitize and rehouse these items and add them to RMDC’s online database.

The OJA’s Mitigating Risk project aims to correct this historic neglect by addressing its magnetic media holistically, including the selection, conservation, digitization, rehousing, digital preservation, and description of all 425 ¼"" open-reel recordings.

Currently, the archive is largely inaccessible due to storage concerns and at-risk media formats. Western Front will make the digitized material accessible on its website, enabling increased discoverability of the collection by scholars, curators, artists, writers and the public.

The Inuit Art Foundation (IAF) archive spans the development of modern Inuit art and represents artists from all media. The archive includes every community within Inuit Nunangat (Inuit regions) and reflects the incredible range of cultural and artistic practices among Inuit artists.

The Société d’histoire du Lac-Saint-Jean is seeking to digitize and publish approximately 22,000 photos from the Jean le Photographe fonds, in order to preserve these visual archives, which bear witness to sixty years of regional history, and make them accessible to the public.
The images will be filed in the photo module of the Société d’histoire du Lac-Saint-Jean’s database, on the organization’s website. This will give researchers access to the photo bank online.

Design and development of specialized machine-learning algorithms for computer vision and generative composition into stand-alone microservices to support products internally as well as stand-alone commercial services. Involves research, design, programming, testing and deployment of cloud-based machine learning services to provide automated functionality to classify, sort, filter and order image and video assets into pre-fabricated narrative data structures to dramatically reduce the amount of time and effort required to deliver highly specific, personalized memory-based products to consumers to drive increased recurring revenue.

The purpose of this CanExport SMEs agreement is to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for activities related to export market development that are part of an export business case for a specific target market, particularly where activities are targeting departmental priority markets and sectors.
