OAIS som analysverktyg : - en jämförande studie av ett digitaliseringsprojekt

The scope of this paper is to investigate if it is possible to use the OAIS Reference Model (Open Archival Information System, developed by US Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems, CCSDS) as a tool to theoretically evaluate a digitization project.   The empirical investigation is a qualitative study of a Digitization Project related to the Broadcast Industry, migrating Television Programmes stored on analogue videotapes, to digital files. This digitization will put those programmes as records into equal problems with Longt-term Digital Preservation as other Digital Records “born digital”.   Each activity in the Digitization Project has been compared by the six high level processes of the OAIS Reference Model. The evaluation criterion was made as an assessment of how the activities of the Digitization Project meet archival theory as the Principle of Provenance and Authenticity.   One key role in the OAIS Reference Model– Management - has been evaluated according to economic incentives to finance a Digitization Project.   The empirical Digitization Project has four different participants, each of them represented in the projects Steering Committee. During the empirical investigation it was also found that the four participants have different objectives of the digitization of Television Programmes.   The conclusion is that it is possible to use the OAIS Reference Model as an evaluation tool. The assement shows low correspondence in important functional entities as Archive Storage and Preservation Planning.The responsibility of ownership in the empirical project is weak according to the criteria proposed in the role of Management in the OAIS Reference Model.
