Abstract:
The image archive is a type of media that is in the Audio-Visual Archives group which can convey meaning by images or sounds. For Silpakorn University archives, the archives not publish their image archive that is collected through the website of the organization because of the reason that the dissemination of image archival in original format through the website, cannot control the use of these archives, such as use without showing the copyright ownership, reproduction or modification without permission and so on. Therefore, in order to maintain such the copyrights, using digital watermarks (Digital Watermark) with image archive can recognize the ownership while publishing on the website, and to avoid copyright infringement that can occur. So it is a guideline for the dissemination of image archive that can show the copyright of Silpakorn University Archives through the website and can allow users to conveniently search for both the original image and image archive also. In this research, the researcher created a questionnaire to collect information about digital watermarking in the image archive. The questionnaire will be divided into two sets. By the first set for Silpakorn University archivist staff, and the second set for Silpakorn Univesity Archives User. The questionnaire will be tight in the main points of digital watermarking, such as setting the position, size, colour, opacity, the criteria for choosing the program and using iWatermark Pro software to test digital watermarking with image archive. The result shows that setting the digital watermark position must be at the bottom right, the position from the questionnaire answer. And is also a position that has been pointed out by the research of human eye tracking, as well as the techniques involved in photography, size, colour, opacity, will also study in this research as well.
