Plangsarn for Thai:
The link is http://164.115.23.167/plangsarn/ . It is developed jointly by Thammasat University and National Electronics and Computer Technology Center of Thailand. It is free to use for anyone with access to Internet and follow ALA-LC romanization table. The accuracy of converter is 90% OK.

This is just informational. We may or may not want to integrate it. First we may want to know if the same is achievable with a table and hooks. According to https://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/thai.pdf the process is not trivial.

Unfortunately, Aksharamukha does not provide ALA-LC compatibility. there are two options:

  1. Adapt Plangsarn (if we have access to the source code to reverse-engineer)
  2. Start from scratch under catalogers' supervision.
