  1. 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!

  2. Dette er jobbet, du vil have! #DMI og #Rigsarkivet arbejder sammen i projektet #ROPEWALK, hvis formål er at digitalisere alle skibsjournaler og logbøger i arkivet - kun hvis vi kender fortidens vejr, kan vi sige noget om fremtidens klima! Logbøgerne skal transskriberes med hjælp af #machinelearning, og vi søger en dygtig og idérig #datascientist til projektet.

  3. Finally! These logbooks from the Royal Greenlandic Trading Company (KGH) are the first to be scanned in the #ROPEWALK project. Adam Jon Kronegh and I estimate this to be roughly 1% of all the documents to be digitized.

    KGH had a monopoly on all trade with #Greenland from 1774 to 1950. #Rigsarkivet #DanishMeteorologicalInstitute

    Once they have been scanned, the logbooks return to the National Archive and will not be touched for the remainder of the project.
