Overview
ODIN stands for the Online Database of Interlinear Text. It is a collection of interlinear glossed text (IGT) instances extracted from linguistic documents on the Web.
As of version 2.0, ODIN is distributed in the Xigt format (as well as text) and is licensed under the Creative Commons CC-BY 4.0 license.
Version 2.1 includes enriched data from the INTENT project, as well as numerous improvements to the cleaning and normalization of the original data.
A flowchart describing how INTENT enriches IGTs is available here.

#Example
The following Icelandic [isl] example is from:
Sigurðsson, Halldór Ármann.
“The Icelandic Noun Phrase: Central Traits.”

The example has been converted into the Xigt format and enriched by INTENT.
Not all annotations are shown; the original XML file is
here.
The example is visualized with the
XigtViz IGT renderer.
Interlinear annotations are shown in columns, and all annotations can be
seen by hovering your mouse cursor over an item. The immediate target of
annotation has a blue border, while ancestors are lightly shaded.
