KBL / Royal Danish Library open-image harvesting

This folder contains scripts for harvesting open-license image material from the Royal Danish Library COP/Digital Collections API for Danish CLIP training.

Included by default:

• Billeder
• Kort og Atlas, kept separable with source_subset=maps

Excluded before scraping:

• aerial photographs / Danmark set fra luften
• Danske aviser 1666-1883
• text-heavy COP editions: books, letters, manuscripts, pamphlets, printed matter and catalogues

The scraper over-collects records using license keywords, then filters by actual MODS accessCondition rights text. KBL commonly expresses public-domain/no-known-rights material as Materialet er fri af ophavsret.

Commands
