Earlier publications

Nina Ellinger Bang was a Danish historian (and politician) who was one of the first women to get an academic degree in Denmark. She had specialized on the Sund Toll Registers (1420s-1857) and she understood what unique historical document the STR was for the economic history of Northern Europe. Today we will also include political, social and cultural history as well. Nina E. Bang had an deep and profound knowledge of the source and her knowledge is "coded" into the publications.

Very valuable is the documentation, standardisation, coding and classification of ports and of products:

• Introduction and appendix of TABELLER OVER SKIBSFART OG VARETRANSPORT GENNEM ØRESUND 1497—1660, vol. 1 (1906). Fil:NinaEBang1906.pdf. The foreword in Danish and in French
• Introduction and appendix of Tabeller over skibsfart og varetransporten gjennom Øresund 1497-1660 vol 2 (1922) Fil:NinaBang2A.pdf
• Introduction and appendix of Tabeller over skibsfart vol 4 (1930) Fil:NinaEBang1930.pdf Fil:NinaEBang1930image.pdf

Nina E. Bang was in charge of the publication two first volumes. The last volumes were published after her death in 1926. Read more about Nina E. Bang in the STRM/obituary and in french translation

Coding and classification

The STRO (Sund Toll Registers Online) consist of raw data, i.e. commodities is described in nearly 200.000 ways and all the spelling variations of "Skokk" (=60 pieces) are kept. It is self-evident that any statistical analysis is quite difficult to do using non-standardised, non-metric, non-decimal and not categorised raw data. In order to make a computer-based analyse of the data possible, the raw data must be standardised, coded, categorised, converted into a coded version of the data. The coded version will not have all the spelling variations and numbers and word for numbers is converted into its metric eqivivalent. To make a fully coded version is a long and complicated process with several steps. However many of these can be done automatically by computers.

STRC A suggestion of how to create a converted and coded version of STR is documented
