What makes MomaPIX useful

Functions told in archival language.

Serious but understandable: the visitor must feel that we really know the world of archives, not that we are adapting just any DAM.

Standards, patterns and controlled vocabularies.

Cataloging remains consistent and description does not degrade as the archive grows.

Hierarchies, funds, series, and structured navigation.

The complexity of the archive is respected, not reduced to simple folders.

Advanced search and natural search for non-specialist users.

Archivists and researchers work technically; the public searches more spontaneously.

Differentiated access for public, scholars, and insiders.

Open consultation, restricted funds, materials not yet public: every level is governable.

Applications, licensing and heritage enhancement.

Very useful when the archive also has to sustain itself through usage rights or sale of reproductions.

Migration from legacy systems without loss of context.

Metadata mapping and controlled import: the original structure is respected in the passage.
