Zusammenfassung |
Hand-written or printed manuscript data are an important source for
paleo-climatological studies, but bringing them into a suitable format can
be a time consuming adventure with uncertain success. Before digitising such
data (e.g., in the context a specific research project), it is worthwhile
spending a few thoughts on the characteristics of the data, the scientific
requirements with respect to quality and coverage, the metadata, and
technical aspects such as reproduction techniques, digitising techniques,
and quality control strategies. Here we briefly discuss the most important
considerations according to our own experience and describe different
methods for digitising numeric or text data (optical character recognition,
speech recognition, and key entry). We present a tentative guide that is
intended to help others compiling the necessary information and making the
right decisions. |
