#peripleo — Public Fediverse posts

The #Peripleo reboot, developed by @aboutgeo for me @OpenUniversity and adapted by Gethin Rees @britishlibrary, has been nominated for Best Visualisation at this year's DH "Oscars" http://dhawards.org/dhawards2022/voting/
Do consider voting for us! In any case do check out the amazing work being done in #DigitalHumanities #GLAMs #LinkedData

#mapping #maps

Posted on behalf of my great friend https://twitter.com/DEJPett/

In 2013 the #AHRC https://crowdsourced.micropasts.org/ project started, drawing on the power of the crowd to digitise 1000s of index cards in the British Museum on Bronze Age metalwork.

Fast forward a decade and a new website — https://bronze-age-index.micropasts.org/— showcases these materials, and much more.

The mapping interface operates at minimal cost (running Gatsby, Meilisearch, GitHub). It uses #Peripleo, @aboutgeo's magnificent #mapping software, re-developed using Anna Foka's project https://www.periegesis.org (on which I'm working) and a small grant from my university
(@OpenUniversity). It enables you to search by findspot and uses publicly accessible geodata sourced from https://finds.org.uk/.

Please feel free to get in touch if you'd like to know more / apply Peripleo to your data.

Today 16:00 GMT. DIY #mapping with #Peripleo at #LinkedPasts

Peripleo is an open-source browser-based tool that enables users to explore #DigitalHumanities and #CulturalHeritage data through the places those collections refer to. This demo will walk you through how you can create maps of your collections — how you can covert your spreadsheet data into #Pelagios #LinkedData standards, create a Peripleo web map, and serve this on #Github Pages.

Details of asynchronous and in-person activities: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZVLfp7zDlL8RYUt7LkBXNHDDX69qOBwTWuy9XN1Wu2o/edit#

Proceedings kick-off online at 15:00 GMT on Tuesday 22 November, with an introduction to this year's four asynchronous activities — what they're about, why they're important, how to get involved, etc. These activities will run (in real time & via shared documents) between Nov 22 and 28, before the in-person #LinkedPasts event starts (29 Nov - 1 Dec) in York.

The four activities are:
1. DIY LOD mapping with #Peripleo

2. LOD and international collaboration

3. Exploring text on maps

4. LOD Time activity

There's something for everyone!
