Tools for Digital Epigraphy (EDEp)

“数字版金石学工具”（EDEp）将探讨数字金石学的可能性和需求。它将为其应用开发有吸引力的工具，并将它们用于电子天文历（EEE），该项目将在项目框架内启动，并在罗马省加利亚比利时的德国地区进行具体研究项目。因此，该项目将把数字铭文学整合到德国当前的罗马历史和考古研究中。开放访问EEE将出版铭文和研究数据的版本，并提供数字和印刷再利用。整个EDEp概念不仅将推进加利亚比利时的研究。通过一些精选的进一步版本，对罗马帝国其他地区的研究也将受益。EDEp将重点关注四个方面，以在古代碑文领域为XML/ tei支持的出版创造更多的接受度。这些都是:1)建立一个出版工具，作为铭文数字版本的最佳实践范例，EEE = Ephemeris Epigraphica Electronica, 2)一个DTS工具，以提高铭文的数字可寻址性和可引用性，3)一本“食谱”，包括GitHub上的在线文档，用于数字版本和关键的，面向用户的工具和工作流分析，用于优化铭文出版物，4)科学产出及其数字附加值的展示。在科学背景下推广数字工具，在电子期刊和GitHub上发表成果。在项目期间，创建的数据和软件解决方案将按照FAIR原则（可查找性、可访问性、互操作性、可重用性）发布，供后续重用。将环境发展方案的产出纳入现有的和新的铭文项目，即使在筹资结束后也能进行必要的调整和可选的改进，虽然不是以成本中立的方式，但相对较少的努力。对申请中列出的Gallia Belgica和其他有限区域重点铭文版本的研究成果，以及对编辑后的铭文的进一步研究，将填补罗马史料处理和研究方面的重要空白。

“Digital edition tools for epigraphy” (EDEp) will explore the possibilities and needs of digital epigraphy. It will develop attractive tools for its application and use them for Ephemeris Epigraphica Electronica (EEE), which will be launched within the framework of the project and within a concrete research project in the German area of the Roman province Gallia Belgica. The project will thus integrate digital epigraphy into current research on Roman history and archaeology in Germany. The open-access EEE will publish editions of inscriptions and research data and offer it for digital and for print reuse. The overall EDEp concept will not only advance research on Gallia Belgica. Through some selected further editions, the research on other regions of the Roman Empire will benefit as well.EDEp will focus on four aspects to create more acceptance for XML/TEI-supported publishing in the field of ancient epigraphy. These are: 1) the establishment of a publication tool as a best practice example for epigraphic digital editions, EEE = Ephemeris Epigraphica Electronica, 2) a DTS tool to improve the digital addressability and citability of inscriptions, 3) a 'cookbook' including online documentation on GitHub for digital editions and critical, user-oriented analyses of tools and workflows for the optimisation of epigraphic publications, 4) presentations of the scientific outputs with their digital added value, promotion of the digital tools in scientific contexts, publication of the outputs in e-journals and GitHub. Already during the project, data and software solutions created will be released for subsequent reuse in accordance with the FAIR principles (findability, accessibility, interoperability, reusability). The integration of EDEp's outputs into existing and new epigraphic projects will enable necessary adjustments and optional improvements to be made even after the end of funding, although not in a cost-neutral way, but with relatively little effort. The research results on Gallia Belgica and the other editions of inscription with a limited regional focus as listed in the application, as well as further research on the edited inscriptions will close important gaps in the processing and research of Roman sources.
