• category:Files uploaded by FinnaUploadBot (tracking categories)

Adding SDC values

Bot will find Finna images using external links of the page. Images with links to helsinkikuvia.fi, kuvakokoelmat.fi, sa-kuva.fi, *.finna.fi or selected Europeana links are considered potential Finna images. When image is found it will try find correct Finna record from URL. If Finna record is found it will confirm that image is same in commons and Finna using perceptual hashes (frequencies) and difference hash (gradients).
