Project Updates

The Digital Concord team has been working to implement the initial model for searching materials through a map interface. We will be launching a prototype of the interface within the next few months. The prototype will allow us to collect people and places from TEI marked texts and relate that material to the GIS data for Concord. We believe that this interface will allow scholars to search and locate data that will prove useful to scholarship.
