Create, Store, Share, and Work with Humanities Data
A Knora repository is a place for doing research. Knora can store texts, images, audio and video recordings, metadata, annotations, text markup, and any other data created by humanities research. It is designed for long-term preservation, and at the same time it provides powerful tools for searching, annotating, extending, linking, sharing, and reusing data.
Find and Link Data across Projects
With Knora, you can search for and link data across projects, search for dates in one calendar and find corresponding dates in other calendars, link a word in a text to an annotation of part of an image, and search for text markup across large numbers of texts.
