Normalization is one preservation strategy that can be implemented using Archivematica.

[[Category:Development documentation]]
 
 
Archivematica uses the National Archives of Australia's Xena software to convert certain file formats to xml-based formats on ingest. A full list of the file types Xena can normalize is available at [http://xena.sourceforge.net/help.php?page=normformats.html http://xena.sourceforge.net/help.php?page=normformats.html].
 
 
 
However, some types of objects cannot be normalized by Xena. Also, it may be desirable to adopt other preservation plans for certain types of objects based on institutional requirements and preferences.

The Archivematica UML Activity Diagrams are the baseline requirements for the system's default micro-services workflow. These were derived from an in-depth analysis of the ISO-OAIS functions which led to a series of OAIS Use Cases and OAIS Activity Diagrams.

Each Archivematica software release builds on the OAIS use cases and implements a growing set of format policies. These are based on an analysis of open standards, open source normalization tools and the significant characteristics of specific media types.

End-user requirements are derived from Archivematica pilot implementation projects and the project's discussion list. They are documented in the development roadmap and issues list.
