| | 3 | ''' Be careful! This site is still in progress. '''[[BR]] |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | === Objectives === |
| | 6 | The projects aims at the implementation of interfaces between the [[https://itgroup.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de:8080/tracs/mpdl-project-software XML-project]] and the [[http://culhis.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/doku.php/gis/gis_main GIS-project]]. |
| | 7 | |
| | 8 | These interfaces will enable the user to transfer between both tools. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | === User Scenarios ===== |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | - Integration of links to digital text documents in spatial datasets as reference |
| | 13 | - Linking of prepared digital maps to specific documents as interactive illustration (travelroutes etc.) |
| | 14 | - Display of digital standard maps for location names |
| | 15 | - ... |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | |
| | 18 | === Technical Concepts === |
| | 19 | - System should be based on: |
| | 20 | * open source software, |
| | 21 | * public free accessable databases |
| | 22 | * interfaces according to [[http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards OpenGIS]] and [[http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer REST]] |
| | 23 | - Creation and saving of digital maps with permanent links |
| | 24 | * Saving map as static image to image-server |
| | 25 | * Saving dynamic map as kml, access via RESTful service |
| | 26 | * Saving dynamic map as querie-set for dataset selection and rule-set for map creation, access via RESTful service |
| | 27 | - Definition of spatial attributes for metadata of and text objects (like location names) within digital documents |
| | 28 | * Spatial attributes within text documents: |
| | 29 | |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | {{{ |
| | 32 | <dcterms:spatial xsi:type="dcterms:Point">Berlin</dcterms:spatial> |
| | 33 | <dcterms:spatial xsi:type="dcterms:Box">Germany</dcterms:spatial> |
| | 34 | <dcterms:temporal xsi:type="dcterms:Period">1900-1950</dcterms:temporal> |
| | 35 | Im <time standard="1923-01">Januar 1923</time> lief Anton nach <place standard="Berlin" type="city" xlink:href="link zur Datenbank">Berlijn</place>. |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | }}} |
| | 38 | |
| | 39 | * A relevant version of the "echo-gis" modul: [[BR]] |
| | 40 | https://itgroup.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de:8080/tracs/mpdl-project-content/browser/trunk/schema/echo/echo-gis.rnc |
| | 41 | * XML-chunks are also in Wolfgangs [[https://itgroup.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de:8080/tracs/mpdl- |
| | 42 | project/content/browser/trunk/schema/xml-test-files|Test-XML-File]] [[BR]] |
| | 43 | See the metadata and the "Im Januar 1923"-sentence at the end. |
| | 44 | - Automated recognition of location names within text documents with manual verification |
| | 45 | * Look-up with terms from local spatial database |
| | 46 | * Look-up in public georeferencing-service like GoogleMaps etc. |
| | 47 | * Look-up in spatial gazateer service from Peter Bol |
| | 48 | - Manual localization (spatial referenciation) of text objects in digital maps |
| | 49 | - ... |
