Well look no further. Digitize India is an initiative of government of India which offers an opportunity for government agencies to transform themselves into digital enterprises and for digital contributors (people like us) to make money online by doing simple data entry work.
Digitize India Platform (DIP) works under Digital India Programme to provide digitization services for scanned document images/physical documents for any organization. They just want to make all the existing content( in different formats and media, languages)
For doing this DIP provides a secure and automated platform for processing and extracting relevant data from document images in a format that is further used for meta-data tagging, IT application processing and analysis. You probably have heard of some other popular crowd sourcing platforms before like Mturk, Microworkers etc , works similarly.
You simply type the word which appears on your screen exactly like Captcha typing jobs although here they are called Snippets.
Digital India Platform helps digitizing the documents for willing Govt. organisations. The whole Process takes following steps-
Digital India Platform collects scanned images from the various Govt. organisations and shred images into snippets with meaning full data.
These snippets are randomly served to the contributors.
Contributors type the words shown in Snippets.
A match engine check if contributor typed the right word.
Correct entries get reward points for each correct words digitized.
DIP innovative system organizes the snippet text digitized by contributors.
