<hi xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" style="font-size:11pt" xml:space="preserve">The ERC Project “From Digital to Distant Diplomatics” (DiDip, https://didip.eu) attempts to build an innovative and sustainable (virtual) research infrastructure and environment (VRE) to facilitate large-scale analyses of historical documents. It will extend the Monasterium.net infrastructure, which is provided in an aging software (Bürgermeister et al. 2018). However, Monasterium.net is still the largest repository of digital representations of medieval and early modern charters. For the future use of this corpus, it is crucial to make data, in particular gold standard annotations, and methods as open as possible. We plan to combine traditional approaches to analyzing such charters with state-of-the-art computational methods and artificial intelligence. The data produced and the methods used will be available under open licenses (code repository </hi> <ref xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" target="https://github.com/Didip-eu"> <hi rend="color(1155CC)" style="font-size:11pt">https://github.com/Didip-eu</hi> </ref> <hi xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" style="font-size:11pt" xml:space="preserve"> ).</hi>
