There are different ways to organize the digital images you took while on a research trip, and there is no one best way. You need to see what works for you. If you don't know where to stop, here is one suggestion.
Tropy
Tropy is a free, open-source tool to organize and describe your research photos. It allows you to:
- Combine photos into a single document
- Add descriptive metadata using built-in metadata templates or create your own
- Add or edit your metadata in bulk
- Add notes and transcriptions to your photos
- Tag your photos with whatever tags you want to use
- Search your information easily
- Export your collections to Omeka or JSON-LD
- View transcriptions next to the image of the handwritten document using side-by-side view
