Giving New Life to Old Records

Do you have documents with images that are hard to read? Or land records with torn or yellowed pages and less legible text and map lines. If so, Avenu Insights & Analytics has the answer – “Digital Magic.”

We digitized millions of maps, plats, deeds, books, and other land records, and in the process has often applied our Digital Magic technology to enhance the quality of images so they look brand new. This technique is available on any digital project:

Digital Magic enhances the clarity of images and documents that are worn out from heavy use. The improvements include:

• Conversion of white on black images to black on white
• De-skewing or straightening of images that are crooked due to mechanical tolerances
• Shading to lighten gray-shaded backgrounds found on forms
• De-speckling and streak removal caused by dirty pages, dirt on the scanner optics, or noise in the scanner charged coupled device (CCD).
• Lighting/Darkening to improve document readability before output takes place.

Taking a step back in time shouldn’t mean viewing land records with torn or yellowed pages and less legible text and map lines. Learn more about Digital Magic today by reaching out to us at succeed@avenuinsights.com.
