NEW YORK — Pronology (www.pronology.com), a developer of tapeless workflow solutions, will showcase its 'location intelligence' feature for its flagship media asset management (MAM) system at NAB 2016. Location intelligence enables editors, producers and other users to quickly determine whether needed content is available immediately on-site or needs to be transferred from another site globally. This ensures the most efficient use of bandwidth and storage resources, while collaborating around the world.
Many productions acquire and store their high-resolution footage — and even multiple copies of that footage — in locations that are often separate from where producers and editors need to work with it. The material could be located in various locations, such as a storage pools in the same building, an OB van across town or even in a facility across the globe. Instead of wasting valuable time and resources transferring unneeded media, or creating superfluous copies of assets that already exist, Pronology’s location intelligence manages the entire process for maximum efficiency.
