Summary

Københavns Stadsarkiv needed a new contractor to take over maintenance for kbhbilleder.dk, a public-facing system covered by public sector regulations. Some of these regulations also meant that the system needed an accessibility audit and changes made to ensure it lived up to the required standards.
In addition to the accessibility audit and update (and various small changes or features, we have planned and executed in cooperation with them), we also performed a full review of the system, and helped plan updates to the maintainability, stability and security, all while balancing impact with budget.

I have never worked with anyone who has taken on so much responsibility.

Concurrently, we have been working with Københavns Stadsarkiv on Link-Lives, a research project in cooperation with the University of Copenhagen and Rigsarkivet, the Danish national archives, aiming to make available digital versions of historical records about Danes.
For link-lives, we have been working closely with other employees at Københavns Stadsarkiv, including their own software developers and designers. We have taken ownership of the public-facing interface of the system, but coordinate closely and provide our expertise in advanced systems engineering and infrastructure automation, as well. The project was launched in 2022, and has been covered in Danish media, including Weekendavisen and Kristeligt Dagblad.
