Emanuel Wenger1, Victor Karnaukhov2 INTAS Project A Distributed Database and Processing System for Watermarks (July 2001 – June 2004) Emanuel Wenger1, Victor Karnaukhov2 1Austrian Academy of Sciences, Commission for Scientific Visualization, Vienna, Austria 2Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute for Information Transmission Problems, Moscow, Russia EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark project artefacts in European handmade paper dating of paper (books, documents, prints, …) important for libraries (old books), museums (prints, paintings), auction houses, historians comparizon of undated wm with wm in catalogues (Briquet, Mojin, Piccard, Ligachev,…) computer: improvement quality (images) speed (search) quantity (network of databases) EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark catalogue EVA2004 Moscow

Teams CO: Austrian Academy of Sciences, Commission for Scientific Visualization, Commission of Paleography and Codicology of Medieval Manuscripts, Vienna, Austria (Haidinger, Stieglecker, Wenger) CR1: Koninklijke Bibliotheek, The Hague, The Netherlands (vanThienen) CR2: Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute for Information Transmission Problems, Moscow, Russia (Victor Karnaukhov) CR3: State Historical Museum, Department of Manuscripts and Old Books, Moscow, Russia (Elena Oukhanova, Elena Popova) CR4: Russian Academy of Sciences, Laboratory of Conservation and Restoration of Documents (Dmitrij Erastov), and National Library of Russia, St. Petersburg, Russia (DenisTsypkin). EVA2004 Moscow

Project Aims Improve all steps of wm processing Research in recording technology Distributed database Develop and extend an integrated wm processing system EVA2004 Moscow

Starting Situation Database in Vienna of medieval watermarks from manuscripts in Klosterneuburg (Haidinger) Watermark database and processing tools (Victor Karnaukhov) Database of wm of Dutch incunabula (vanThienen) Invention and research of betaradiography in St. Petersburg (Dmitrij Erastov) and image processing (Denis Tsypkin) EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark Recording rubbing beta radiography electron radiography digital camera special illumination multispectral images (infrared) image processing EVA2004 Moscow

Rubbing EVA2004 Moscow

Rubbing EVA2004 Moscow

Rubbing EVA2004 Moscow

Rubbing (poor) image quality depending on quality of paper removal of overlapping text very cheap fast procedure portable equipment scanning of images required EVA2004 Moscow

Beta radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Beta radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Beta radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Beta radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Beta radiography good image quality removal of overlapping text expensive (beta radiography plate, film) long exposure times (up to 8 hours) portable equipment scanning of images required EVA2004 Moscow

Electron radiography film lead foil EVA2004 Moscow

Electron radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Electron radiography EVA2004 Moscow

Electron radiography very good image quality removal of overlapping text very expensive (service, film) short exposure times (250-300 in 4 hours) big equipment, not portable everywhere scanning of images required EVA2004 Moscow

Digital camera State Historical Museum (E. Oukhanova) Tools: 1. Digital camera Olympus C-3030Zoom 2. Slimlight device 3. A scale, a little weight (a piece of marble) Resolution for processing: folio – 170-210 dpi, quarto – 200-250 dpi EVA2004 Moscow

Slimlight 1mm foil electroluminiscence flexible homogenous illumination no heat and ultraviolet radiation EVA2004 Moscow

Digital camera EVA2004 Moscow

Digital camera good image quality, BUT no removal of overlapping text (only by sophisticated software) very cheap (digital camera, illumination) short processing time portable equipment no scanning of images required, no hardcopy EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark Processing preprocessing geometric corrections contrast enhancement standardized quality geometric corrections orientation crop extraction (segmentation) EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark database Databases: libraries, books, types, watermarks, ... Classification of wm into types, subtypes (6 levels) Multilingual (problem of miss. standards) Search for identical wms or variants EVA2004 Moscow

Type/Subtypes EVA2004 Moscow

Watermark database and toolkit EVA2004 Moscow

Results Enlargement and improval of the wm databases and processing systems in TheHague and Vienna Watermark database at the Historical Museum in Moscow Watermark database at the Russian State Library in St. Petersburg Multilingual database (English, German, Russian) Combination of all four watermark databases EVA2004 Moscow
