+ Demystifying Digitisation: A Hands-On Master Class in Text Digitisation
The Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities-Belgium (DARIAH-BE) and Digital Humanities Flanders (DHuF) are organising a two-day event for digital humanities researchers at the University of Antwerp. Demystifying Digitisation: A Hands-On Master Class in Text Digitisation will take place on 29 – 30 September 2016.
The core of the programme consists of two workshops – the first dealing with ABBYY OCR software and the second explaining the HTR technology available in our Transkribus platform. There will also be associated lectures exploring the most important considerations for mass and ad-hoc digitisation projects.
Each workshop is limited to 20 participants. Official registration will be open soon but preliminary enquiries can be sent to mike.kestemont@uantwerpen.be
