We understand just how important it is to preserve historic hydrometeorological observations that were created using paper charts. Our digitisation services allow us to convert your old environmental paper records into digital and shareable formats – freeing you for more storage, giving you easy access to these records from anywhere and protecting the longevity of these vital records over time.

From scanning the charts, identifying the information drawn on them, correcting suspicious values, and filling data gaps – our digitisation service does it all for you. Plus, we make sure that what was recorded on paper will be available to you in your favourite data management system.
