Digitization/ Digitisation

The process of converting analogue information into a digital format.



Digitization refers to creating a digital representation of physical objects or attributes. For instance, we scan a paper document and save it as a digital document (e.g., PDF). In other words, digitization is about converting something non-digital into a digital representation or artifact.



Digitisation refers to the use of sensors and rendering devices to translate the physical production process, or parts of it, into digital information (and vice versa).
