A Virtual Research Environment consists of digital content, on which researchers working in different localities can collaborate with a set of integrated tools. Their creation is currently supported by a competitive funding program of the German research council. (DFG) Virtual Research Environments

Digitization

SLIDE 35

Digitization workflows defined by individual projects. Environment guarantees persistent identification: By URN. By canonical identifiers. In as far as these represent the tectonics of archives, they can be used as browsing characteristics.

Symbol manipulation

Tools for basic image improvement. Specialized functions for manuscript image improvement. Specialized functions for image of seals improvement. Support for symbol catalogues, functions to: Administer cutouts in symbol catalogues. Reduce them to basic graphic forms. Compare them with the content of other symbol catalogues.

Administration of „notes“ which may become public. Careful separation between private and public levels of “commenting” / editing. “Publication” process supported by versioning. “Publication” process supported by four layered rights model: User may reserve charters for working on them. Moderators check general academic quality. Archivists may extend / restrict access rights of moderators and users to specific holdings. Administrators create and manage access rights of other groups. Everybody may allow / prohibit access to his / her private notes..

PDF export of charter descriptions. (Formatted according to chartulary rules). Preparations for RTF or OOXML or ODF export of charter descriptions. HTML export of charter descriptions. EAD / CEI / TEI – i.e.: XML – export of charter descriptions, “partially filtered”. OAI – PMH for EAD / CEI /TEI as above. Private notes can be exported as Excel sheets, possibly citation administration formats. All levelsof publication bound together by PURN as well as canonical addressing.

Vision I

slide-52
SLIDE 52

(1) Build a platform for as many collections of charters as are willing to share their holdings. (2) Create interfaces to all tools, which are willing to be shared.

Vision: An environment for „charter based research“
