Digital Resources


Digital economic history thrives on the systematic curation, reuse, and critical reflection of heterogeneous sources. On this page we bring together the central digital resources of the project and make them transparent, citable, and sustainably usable.

Datasets

Under Datasets, we provide FAIR, highly structured research data that has been derived, curated, and documented from historical sources. They form the basis for quantitative and qualitative analyses and are prepared in such a way that they remain reusable in the long term and interoperable with other research data.

Repositories

The Repositories section points to our open development environments, in particular on platforms such as GitHub and Hugging Face. There we publish source code, data models, methods, workflows and experimental tools that are developed or used in the project. Our goal is to make digital methods reproducible and to support their further development within the research community.

Bibliography

In the Bibliography, we document digitized and OCR-processed analog sources that serve as the starting point for our data collection. These materials are systematically described and – where possible – transformed into structured datasets. In doing so, we bridge classical source work and data-driven research in economic history.
