Introduction to Spatial Humanities
Visualizing and analysing spatial data in humanities research

 

With: Patricia Murrieta-Flores (Co-Director of the Digital Humanities Hub at Lancaster University)

Dates: 25-26 January 2019 Room: 105 (Torre A – FCSH)

Organisation: IHC’s Digital Humanities Lab

Geography is a key element in historical and archaeological analysis. Georeferenced data visualization draws attention to patterns in available information, often leads researchers to new questions, and improves the communication of research results. Nowadays several methods and tools are used in spatial data visualization. The application of these tools and methods has spread throughout the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, where their use in research has expanded both chronologically and thematically. This workshop will introduce concepts, methods and tools for spatial visualization and explore with concrete research questions the potential and the limitations of this methodology.
