This workshop goes over the different forms of digitizing analog objects, from books to artifacts. Using open-source tools, we will cover the different types of image processing including rasterization, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), photogrammetry, and 3D Modeling. This workshop was developed for the digital humanities, but it is also useful for librarians, art historians, and digital archival curation.
Dr. Adam G. Anderson joined UC Berkeley in 2017 as a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in the Digital Humanities at Berkeley. He is currently a lecturer in Digital Humanities and Data Science and a co-author and designer of the Theory and Methods curriculum for the DigHum Minor and Certificate Program. He is a co-coordinator for the Digital Humanities Working Group (DHWG) and Computational Text Analysis Working Group (CTAWG), as well as the topic area lead in Network Analysis and Text Analysis at the UC Berkeley D-Lab.
