Summary
The archive by photographer Erling Syringen (b. 26.01.1907 - d. 01. 11. 1983) includes glass plate negatives, film negatives and paper prints and came to the Glomdals Museum in the early 1980s. The photo archive depicts a photographer with a high level of activity and a broad sphere of interest. Erling Syringen's camera lenses captured most of the events of small and large scale in Elverum. The photo archive of Erling Syringen represents the most comprehensive photographic documentation we have of Elverum in the period from approx. 1930 to ca. 1970. Large parts of the archive have been digitized, but work is still ongoing.
Commercial Auto Sales Catalogs
We at GetArchive are exploring new methods of image metadata augmentation and verification. Our goal is to make it possible to find images on any topic. In particular, we are trying to verify and fix historic periodization. This collection is made of historic photographs of automobiles that look as if they were taken in the 1940s. The collection is made with aid of a neural image recognition network dealing with the whole image composition rather than with the car model - some cars may be dated incorrectly. Although, while this method is surprisingly good for the purpose of dating and tagging, a certain percentage of images (less than 8%) may not represent automobile, but other vehicle type or visually similar object. Naturally, our next step should be creating numerous datasets for a particular car years&models, but as of September 2022, we found no use to justify the effort.
