phpress Description

Manage the creation, the handling and the analysis of a documentary corpus of archived daily newspapers PhPress is an application suite based upon PHP/MySQL, designed to manage, in afast-ethernet or a standalone context, the creation, the handling and the analysis of a documentary corpus of archived daily newspapers.NOTE: PhPress is still under developpement. Don't expect it to work perfectly, and don't expect it to be useful for anything else than daily newspapers analysis. It is an experimental and complicated software, created for scientific purpose. Here are some key features of "phpress": · a system to help you to scan newspapers pages from a microfilm roll or from original papers, to organize the pages, to convert them into PNG or JPG format and to backup your work. · a system to quickly find and display the documents related to a calendar date. · an analysis system, which let you select articles in the newspaper page, tag them with informations about their content (what happened, where...), and automatically calculate their relative surface area. This analysis system was inspirated by the works of Jacques Kayser, who created at the end of the 1960's a daily papers analysis method for Political Sciences. · some tools to handle, edit, display, count the pages and articles. · some administration tools, for system maintenance, backup, user's privileges.
