Case Study: Forms Processing Solution Accurately Captures 9.6 Million Fields In Less Than Two Weeks
By A2iA
Kangourou des Mathématiques, hosted by Editions ATL, is the world's largest math testing competition for French-speaking students ages 8 to 18. In 2006, nearly 300,000 students representing 37 European, Asian and North American countries took part in the competition. Kangourou des Mathématiques consists of a math quiz containing 24 multiple-choice questions and is complemented by mathematical handouts that simultaneously provide students with culture, entertainment and knowledge.In past competitions, operators processed the answer sheets using optical reading – a process that was tedious, time-consuming and unreliable. However, for the 2006 competition, Editions ATL needed the 300,000 answer sheets to be accurately processed in less than two weeks in order to meet their deadline for announcing the competition's results.
For Kangourou des Mathématiques 2006, Editions ATL retained Maerys to automate the processing of the student answer sheets and manage the project. Processing of the 300,000 answer sheets was automated using a solution containing products from Maerys, Kofax (DICOM) and A2iA.
