Documentation

The project website provides two kinds of documentation:

  • for users (text and videos)
  • for digital humanists (the project's internal Manual for Data Collection is available in the Documentation section of the website)

Data visualization

Scholars can explore the LOD triple store with a semantic search interface, via a visual map-based interface or as a graph.
