Abstract
The objectives of the National Air and Space Museum — to develop an information system providing for the capture of photographic, lineal and textual documents in high resolution digital images, to convert the digital images of text to standard ASCII computer code, and to retrieve the appropriate code automatically through keyword searching of full text — are described. System assembly is examined, as are planned and potential applications.
