Abstract
Sinhala Inscriptions are used as one of the major sources of getting information about ancient Sri Lanka. Revealing the Information from these inscriptions becomes a huge challenge for archeologists. This research paper focused on Sinhala character recognition in ancient Sri Lankan inscription. Our intention is to ease this process by developing a web based application that enable recognition of inscription characters through scanned images and store them in an inscription database. Using this system people can track geographical location of inscriptions. Epigraphist could be able to easily obtain Sinhala interpretation of Sri Lankan inscriptions via the optical character recognition feature in our system. Our work on this research project provides benefits to researchers in archaeology field, epigraphists and general public who are interested in this subject. Inscription site tracking module will present a map that user can go around easily by tracking the locations of inscriptions. This paper presents the Architecture for this Sinhala Epigraphy system.
