Today, I presented a poster at the #EGU24 in Vienna. On behalf of my colleagues #AdamJonKronegh and #EsbenSkov and myself, I presented the actual status of our #ROPEWALK ship journal digitization project, which is a joint venture of #Rigsarkivet (the National Archive of Denmark) and #DMI, funded by A.P. Møller Fonden. More than 50 people wanted to find out how far we've got with reading the data by means of machine learning. Maybe we can go into production mode soon, so see me at #EGU25!

When the Great Belt was frozen, it was crossed with "ice boats". Such a journey was dangerous and could take between 6 hours and several days.
In the museum in Halsskov Odde, this list of ice boat crossings (1794-1937) is shown. In cold winters (e.g. 1798/99) there was ice boat traffic for more than 100 days in a row.
Such data is a supplement to ice observations taken from ships that I am digitising together with archivist #AdamJonKronegh and data scientist #EsbenSkov, both from Rigsarkivet.
