BENEFITS OF OPEN CULTURE DATA
Open Images is an open media platform that offers online access to audiovisual archive material to stimulate creative reuse.
Built by Sound and Vision & Knowledgeland but designed for participation by others.

Allowing (creative) reuse
• CC-BY-SA as preferred license• 3,000 items from our ‘own’ collection• Currently more than 2,000 items
available• ‘Internet quality’
Some numbers:
Estimated length of entire S&V archive: 800,000 h
Estimated length of ‘our’ newsreel collection: 500 h
Estimated length of material in Open Images: 55 h
So currently 11% of ‘our’ newsreel collection is open through Open Images and 0,007% of our entire archive.
