Data capture with
power, speed & flexibility





Document scanning, with full page and individual
items of data that can be identifiedand scanned,
indexed and sorted for database building & storage…

IdeaGen Root intelligent document scanning software with Kodak scanners capture individual items of data automatically.

Data capture is faster with improved accuracy to automated input, final file creation and database building.

Document scanning doesn’t just have to generate whole pages—individual items of data can be identified and automated calculations undertaken as part of the data capture process. Documents can be indexed and sorted for storage or forwarded electronically to you for further processing.
Single or double-sided, any size up to A3: Our scanners can handle your documents.

We can:

  • Scan whole pages
  • Identify words and numbers automatically
  • Capture barcodes automatically
  • Responses to answers in tick boxes automatically
  • Offer recognition of hand-printed text
  • Images can be enhanced to enable accurate reading and keying
  • Images created are then matched to a form for capture by an operator where the original image quality is poor
  • Look-up tables plus programming are used to check results during keying to enhance accuracy
  • Postal Address File validation of addresses is built in to provide accurate address details
  • Document design is really important in this area to gain the maximum benefit – please discuss with us in the design stage of the document in order that we can maximise your solution.

Data capture with information at your fingertips
Data capturing complex questionnaires with multiple questions, incoming mail, a need to create an electronic filing system, or simply a competition entry form that needs a name and address captured, or undelivered mail to be removed from your records, we have solutions to move your business forward.

  • The results of using document scanning for data capture are:
  • Your documents are indexed to match your original files for easy checking
  • Papers can be numbered making it easy to find the image at a later date
  • And we can output the answers in a format to suit your requirementsPlus we undertake research, report statistics and undertake trend analysis.

Further, we can build the output to match your existing database or build and manage a database for your future use. That means readily available information in an instant.
