The Visual Collections site from Cartography Associates contains dozens of
digital image collections from Museums, Universities and private collections
throughout the world. Collections have been organized into five topics:
Cartography;
Fine Arts;
Architecture;
Photography; and
Other;
and are also presented as a complete list in the
View All tab.
Cartography Associates strives to provide an on-line environment wherein
all types of digital collections from a wide range of resources can be
fused together into one large, comprehensive collection. Users may simultaneously
view multiple collections from any category. All collections are presented in
the Luna Insight® software and many offer the collection in both the
Insight® Browser and
Insight® Java Client.
Users can search through multiple collections ranging from antiquity to the present
for a particular artist, time period, or medium.
There are both free and subscription based collections. By clicking on
the Description link below each collection a separate pop-up window will
appear with a full description of the collection and a link to its main site.
Using the viewing tools in the Image Workspace, both the Insight Browser and
Insight Java Client will allow you to perform a variety of tasks such as zooming,
viewing image data, panning and scrolling, and printing of the image and its data.

Insight® Flash Tutorial.
