Case Study: ANTARCTICA XXI achieves streamlined global digital asset management and metadata control with Picturepark

ANTARCTICA XXI - Customer Case Study

ANTARCTICA XXI, a specialist tour operator running expeditions to Antarctica, needed a lightweight but powerful way to manage and share its growing photo and metadata archives across teams in Chile, France, Canada and Italy while preserving usage rights and expert-level metadata. The company selected Picturepark’s cloud Digital Asset Management solution (Picturepark Cloud) because it promised quick deployment, global access and a lower training/configuration burden than complex enterprise systems.

Picturepark delivered a cloud-based DAM that lets staff access, tag and route assets from anywhere, with Picturepark partner Carey Digital training ANTARCTICA XXI’s subject-matter expert to build and extend the company’s taxonomy in-house. The result was reduced reliance on external services, manageable initial and ongoing costs, faster global sharing and stronger metadata and rights control — positioning ANTARCTICA XXI to scale into video and document management while retaining autonomy and simplicity.
