Converting Toji Hyakugo Monjo WEB Data to IIIF

Overview

I had the opportunity to use images published on the Toji Hyakugo Monjo WEB, which publishes the National Treasure Toji Hyakugo Monjo held by the Kyoto Prefectural Library and Archives, and created a repository that converts the published data to IIIF format.

https://github.com/nakamura196/toji_iiif

The following dataset was used.

https://hyakugo.pref.kyoto.lg.jp/?page_id=1481

In particular, you can view a list of images from the following URL.

Key Points

IIIF Collection

You can access the IIIF collection from the following URL. This enables machine-readable access.

https://nakamura196.github.io/toji_iiif/iiif/set/3/collection.json

width and height Information

Each item can be accessed from URLs like the following:

https://nakamura196.github.io/toji_iiif/iiif/3/1/manifest.json

In particular, since image size information is not included in the aforementioned dataset, this can be useful information.

Summary

We hope this serves as a useful reference for machine processing of data published on the Toji Hyakugo Monjo WEB.
