Digital Humanities: Concepts turned into Visualisations
All the multidisciplinary approaches to the study of maritime cultural landscapes (including the spatial data related to marine resources exploitation) will be put into practice. The main objectives of WP7 is to translate scientific and historical information into digital means of visualisations. This may be done through the construction of digital cartography with related information on historical and archaeological events (GIS), or the construction of visual/digital products such as info-graphs or short informational videos.
The production of digital elements allows the integration of a large amount of data and of distinct types of information, in terms of its content, chronology and geographical scale.
