Project Examples

The following are examples of data-related projects that highlight. Note more complex projects, especially ones with custom platforms, are grant or institutionally funded, which enables scholars to create more robust public-facing works.

Humanities

  • Divisions of the Bible - a data visualization project that uses the tool Tableau

  • Mapping Shakespeare’s Tragedies - a network visualization project that uses the tool Gephi.

  • Navigating the Green Book - a mapping project that uses the tools Mapbox, Leaflet, and Open Street Map

  • Also see, Humanities & Data for more projects

Social Sciences

  • Simulated Dendrochronology of U.S. Immigration - a visualization project shows the historical immigration to the U.S. (1830 -2015)
