Abstract: | [Lessons from Digitizing a Linguistic Atlas] It is good to convert hard-copy data into a digital form because of the many useful ways the data can be processed using modern information technology. Through the internet, it also becomes the best way of making the data available to the whole community of linguists, easily and in a useful manner. However, the task of converting the data can be time-consuming, expensive, and error-prone unless it is done thoughtfully. Furthermore, the conversion task can expose ambiguities and surprises in the source data, requiring serious editorial decisions. |
