Natural History

Specimen-level digitization for collections that require scientific precision.

Capturing Natural History in Extraordinary Detail

Natural history specimens demand a different kind of precision — the same origin that shaped DT overall (founder Peter Siegel led digital imaging at the American Museum of Natural History) shows up directly in how DT DigiLabs approaches specimen digitization at scale.

What DT DigiLabs Offers Archives

Digitization & Capture

Digitization & Capture

focus-stacked macro capture for small specimens (DT’s published example: a 2.5cm beetle specimen resolved at up to ~14,000 pixels of detail using automated focus stacking)

DT Cipher

DT Registrar

species and specimen identification and metadata at collection scale

Smithsonian Museum

Who We’ve Worked With
