Abstrakt: The Aberdeen Art Gallery Image Database Project is a pilot project funded by the Scottish Library and Information Council with the aim of creating a small image database containing a selection of works held in the Aberdeen Art Gallery. Outlines how the project was developed using a relatively low hardware specification and standard proprietary software, noting that it provides a possible model for others seeking a low-cost approach to the development of their own image databases. States that the project illustrates many of the issues likely to arise during the development and construction of an image database, including selecting the hardware and software; image capture, compression and storage; the indexing and retrieval of the works; and the design of the user interface.
