About the DCCD
Dendrochronology studies the annually varying ring widths in wood. Tree-ring patterns in wood from the cultural heritage contain unique information about former chronology, social economy, the historical landscape and its uses, climate and wood technology.
The DCCD is a digital repository and interactive library of tree-ring data. Its content is developed through research of, among others: archaeological sites (including old landscapes), ship wrecks, buildings, furniture, paintings, sculptures and musical instruments.
The DCCD is based on the Tree-Ring Data Standard (TRiDaS) and allows for conversion of other widely-used data formats. It contains digital tree-ring measurement series and average chronologies, as well as their descriptive and interpretative metadata. It allows contributors to control and manage access to their data.
