The digital heritage indicators provide statistics about various aspects of digitising, maintaining and publishing digital cultural heritage. The indicators are divided in four main themes: supply, demand , economics and sustainability. This work is part of the ENUMERATE project.
The indicator allows institutions to compare “digitisation activity” very broadly with other institutions. On an aggregated scale it provides reference materials for progress in the domain of digital collections (e.g. Proportion of memory institutions with digital heritage collections).
This indicator is a measure of the support for activities related to the growth and maintenance of digital collections within an institution.
This indicator focuses on the need to digitise that part of the analogue collections of an institution that have not been digitally reproduced yet, expressed as a percentage of the full analogue collections.
This indicator shows which copyright conditions apply for both full content and metadata.
This indicator essentially fixes the proportion of the collections of a heritage institution that are catalogued in a collection database.
The indicator allows institutions to compare performance in collecting any kind of born digital heritage materials (i.e. software, digital documents, digital art and harvested web content) with others.
This indicator measures the estimated popularity of current and expected future access channels, starting from a predefined list of channels.
In this issue of EuropeanaTech Insight we highlight several projects and use-cases related to Optical Character Recognition (OCR).

This indicator specifies the total number of people (in full-time equivalent) that are engaged in creating, maintaining, enhancing and preserving the digital collections.
Costs of digital collections can be divided into incidental (upfront) costs and structural (ongoing) costs.
The costs of digital collections can be divided into in-house costs and outsourced costs.
