ECAI AND THE HUMANITIESECAI AND THE HUMANITIES

Allows spatial and temporal discovery and analysis: • A clearinghouse of over 1000 spatial datasets and authored

maps. Records are coded by time and place and are visable on a map.

Lets scholars “show their work”:• Digital atlases that bring together data from many contributors

pertaining to a given place.

Facilitates interactive publication: • ePublications are exemplary

map-based electronic publications on cultural topics. ECAI ePublications are peer reviewed and persistent.
