Answer:

The process of converting information, such as text, numbers, photos, or music, into digital data that can be manipulated by electronic devices is called Digitization

Explanation:

It is the process of converting “information in to a digital form”. Here the information are organized into bits. Mostly these data will be converted into the form of image. But these can be edited by converting once again into necessary format and even back to image too. There are specific tools which the user needs to install for editing the digital documents.

The reason why we need digitization is that

a) We want to convert hard copy into soft copy and store it in system.  

b) We would like to edit the data in the hard copy and preserve as a fresh copy.
