Abstract

top
ACM Computing Classification System (1998): J.2.Here we describe the technology and the experience during the astronomical photographic plate digitization with flatbed EPSON scanners. More than 275000 plates in different observatories in Europe were digitized with such scanners last decade.This work is supported by the BG NSF DO-02-273 and DO-02-275 grants and DFG grant STE: 710/6-1,20.11.2009.
