The Dannotate Web Annotator

This page describes the 'Dannotate' web annotation client that is being developed by the eResearch Group as part of the DIAS-B project. (The DIAS-B project is funded by the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA), and the software will become part of the infrastructure of ALA.)

Dannotate is a suite of tools for creating annotations for web pages and storing them in an Annotea server such as Danno The client-side of Dannotate is being implemented in browser independent Javascript, and will support all browser types including Firefox, Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer. (Version details are still to be finalised.) The client-side is designed to run as non-trusted Javascript launched from a hosting website.

For more information of Dannotate's architecture and design, and a link to a Dannotate demo, please refer to the eResearch group's DIAS-B project page.
