Tagged Data - level 3

This repository contains digitised manuscripts sale catalogs encoded in XML-TEI at level 3.

The data have been cleaned (level 2) and post-processed (level 3).

Schema

You can find the ODD that validates the encoding in the repository Data_extraction (folder _schemas).

Workflow

Once the data have been cleaned and post-processed, we can check them. Some errors may appear and some corrections may be needed.

From this data, extractor-json.py extracts informations and retrieves them in an JSON file, available here.

The script transforms this

<item n="80" xml:id="CAT_000146_e80">
   <num>80</num>
   <name type="author">Cherubini (L.),</name>
   <trait>
      <p>l'illustre compositeur</p>
   </trait>
   <desc>
      <term>L. a. s.</term>;<date>1836</date>,
      <measure type="length" unit="p" n="1">1 p.</measure> 
      <measure unit="f" type="format" n="8">in-8</measure>.
      <measure commodity="currency" unit="FRF" quantity="12">12</measure>
    </desc>
</item>

into

{
"CAT_000146_e80_d1": {
    "desc": "L. a. s.; 1836, 1 p. in-8. 12",
