Transkribus
Software for analysis of historical documents
Transkribus is a platform for the text recognition, image analysis and structure recognition of historical documents.
The platform was created in the context of the two EU projects "tranScriptorium" (2013-2015) and "READ" (Recognition and Enrichment of Archival Documents, 2016-2019). It was developed by the University of Innsbruck. Since July 1, 2019 the platform has been directed and further developed by the READ-COOP, a non-profit cooperative.
The platform integrates tools developed by research groups throughout Europe.
Comparable programs that offer similar functions are eScriptorium and OCR4All.
