A free cloud service for OCR
2023-09-27
The project aims to create a prototype Optical Character Recognition (OCR) web service for processing old Swedish texts that are printed in a blackletter (fraktur) or roman typeface, using one of two open source OCR engines. Our ultimate goal is to provide a service for libraries, museums and archives to upload any digitized document and retrieve an OCRed text with high quality, independent on the quality of the print.
