Third Digital Preservation Award 2007
Der aktuelle Gewinner des Preises für digitale Langzeitarchivierung ist das DROID (Digital Record Object Identification) Projekt.
DROID is designed to meet the fundamental requirement of any digital repository to be able to identify the precise format of all stored digital objects, and to link that identification to a central registry of technical information about that format and its dependencies.
Die Open Source Software dient der automatischen Erkennung von Dateiformaten in digitalen Archiven und Repositories.
