Para ello, se realizan una serie de consultas sistemáticas que se valoran con la métrica de precisión en esta plataforma promovida por la Unión Europea para garantizar la protección y accesibilidad del patrimonio y de la memoria fotográfica europea. Los resultados obtenidos permiten determinar el porcentaje de fotografía patrimonial sobre Andalucía en Europeana, analizar su contenido temático y las instituciones proveedoras de ésta, así como ofrecer una selección de recomendaciones y propuestas de optimización de la visibilidad y el acceso a colecciones de fotografía monumental, urbana, paisajística y de tipos del ámbito andaluz., This research involved the presence of the Andalusian heritage photography on EuropeanaPhotography in order to evaluate its accessibility and visibility at European level. A series of systematic search, a number of queries about this topic and the responses are evaluated by the metric of precision. This platform is promoted by the European Union to guarantee the protection and accessibility of the European heritage and photographic memory. The results allow us to determine the rate of the heritage photography on Andalusia in Europeana, analyse their subject contents and their cultural institutions, as well as to offer a small number of recommendations and proposals to optimise the access and visibility to collections of the Andalusian monumental, urban, landscape and popular characters photography., Este trabajo ha sido financiado por el Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte de España, a través del programa de ayudas de Formación de Profesorado Universitario (FPU) 2014 (nº de referencia FPU14-04599) y el programa de ayudas a la movilidad para estancias breves 2016 (nº de referencia EST16/00958).

EuropeanaPhotography is a EC funded project to prepare, quality-assure and contribute above 430,000 new photographic items to Europeana. Such contribution represents the finest examples of European photography from its invention to the start of the Second World War, therefore the very beginning of photography. Content: EuropeanaPhotography is a unique consortium composed of private and public partners who are digitizing the best examples of early photography (1839 – 1939), in order to provide the related metadata and thumbnails to Europeana (over 220.000 new items added during 2013!). The partners come from all over Europe and have very different backgrounds, expertise and requirements, thus empowering each other through knowledge exchange and sharing. The achievements of Europeana Photography in the fields of photography, digitization, metadata enrichment, IPR and sustainability models are made available to the whole community of professionals and institutions in the field. The consortium includes 19 representatives from 13 Member States. They are leading private and public photographic agencies as well as public institutions and museums. Two new content providers, from Ukraine and from Cyprus, recently joined the consortium as affiliate partners, and will provide further images of theirs to Europeana. The work within the project concerns the following main activities. Digitization Metadata support and best practices through MINT Multilingual vocabulary on Early Photography IPR support and advocacy Dissemination and Training On these topics, public documents and factsheets have been produced and made available on the project’s website http://www.europeana-photography.eu and on the project’s showcase on www.digitalmeetsculture.net online magazine. The project plans a major communication campaign including a physical exhibition including a virtual exhibition, a mobile digitization studio and a video. The Europeana photography exhibition is setup as a travelling exhibition that can be combined to local initiatives. EuropeanaPhotography is currently setting up a membership-based organisation to continue its mission. Services to be provided are digitization expertise, metadata mapping support, IPR consultancy and advocacy and training.

– EuropeanaPhotography is an EU-funded digitization project that will provide Europeana with over 430.000 of the finest examples of early photography, for an impressive increase in the number of photos available in the Europeana. These photographs provide a unique insight into the evolution of European society and of the art of photography between the 19th and 20th century, which is a valuable source for research in many fields (history, economics, sociology…). EuropeanaPhotography will also enrich Europeana with materials from countries with a currently limited display, for a wider overview of European history. ispartof: pages:36-41 ispartof: Electronic Imaging & the Visual Arts pages:36-41 ispartof: EVA 2013 location:Florence date:15 May - 16 May 2013 status: published
