In this lesson from Programming Historian, you will learn how to display a georeferenced map from Map Warper in KnightLab's StoryMap JS, an interactive web-based map and storytelling platform.dLanguageTag
The foundational skills in Distant Viewing and computer vision are increasingly relevant in the Digital Humanities, yet educational resources are often aimed at those with a background in computer science and statistics. For example, machine learning and digital image processing are fundamental to the Computational Humanities, but many scholars in the Digital Humanities lack accessible training in these areas.
The goal of this project was to create a focused course enabling students to acquire essential skills in computer vision, specifically tailored for Digital Humanists. Upon completing this course, students will possess a foundational understanding of digital image representation, computer vision methodologies, and machine learning techniques, all contextualized within a Digital Humanities framework.
This class is part of the project "Computer Vision for Digital Humanists" and licensed Creative Commons BY NC SA. This project (2023) was funded by CLARIAH-AT with the support of BMBWF. It was made possible by major contributions from the ERC DiDip project (From Digital to Distant Diplomatics). The video was produced by Moving Stills.
The goal of the project "Computer Vision for Digital Humanists" was the creation of educational self-learning resources on Computer Vision specifically for Digital Humanities, consisting of slide decks, Jupyter Notebooks with practical exercises in Python as well as teaching videos ( see the YouTube playlist. They cover a range of topics from the basics of computer vision and machine learning to training custom deep learning models for one's own historical data.

With the evolution of the digital world, the term ‘digital culture’ has emerged. How does digital culture tie into the idea of heritage, and how does digital heritage emerge? This video lecture discusses the meaning of 'culture' in a historical and digital context, offering an introduction to 'digital culture' and how this is intertwined with digital heritage.dLanguageTag
This event, organised in the framework of the TRIPLE project, provided insights into the use of “topical vocabularies” and their use in metadata curation and quality assessment in the Social Sciences and Humanities (in the EOSC context). The sessions introduces learners to have a better understanding of the interoperability challenges faced within/by the SSH branch of the EOSC, and be familiar with some initiatives related to metadata curation and enrichment in the SSH.dLanguageTag
This workshop, focussing on "Spatial data medieval to modern", is the first of a series of workshops from the NOS-HS project "Linking, Building, and Sustaining Humanities Digital Spatial Infrastructures for Research in the Nordic Countries". The main aims of this workshop were to define key concepts (spatial infrastructures, Linked Open Data, metadata, ontology), outline major challenges in the field, and to provide an opportunity to share experiences of addressing the issues in individual and national projects across the Nordic countries.dLanguageTag
This training event from the TRIPLE Project is jointly organised with the SSHOC Project and is dedicated to the creation, use and management of controlled vocabularies in the SSH. In this training session, the presenters highlight the need for multilingual SSH vocabularies and provide answers to the following questions: What are SSH Vocabularies and why are they so important; How to create a multilingual SSH Vocabulary (The TRIPLE case); How to build an interoperable infrastructure for vocabularies (The SSHOC case).dLanguageTag
This webinar is a lively discussion of archival collections containing rich material relating to Dublin, ranging from ‘ghost signs’ that illustrate the hidden history of Dublin’s commercial past, historical collections on key events in our shared history like the 1916 Rising, community-based films that showcase the contemporary social history of the city, photographs that provide insight into the fascinating heritage of communities like the Dublin Port docklands, and much more.dLanguageTag
Learn how community-building projects can engage local stakeholders, pull insights from diverse perspectives, and influence urban redevelopment authorities.
Hear state-of-the-art theories and approaches to sustainable heritage, with reflections from experienced architects, academics, and urban thinkers. Identify critical issues of urban gentrification, place-making, and the pressures faced by historic urban neighbourhoods in Southern Europe.
See state-of-the-art technologies deployed for rapid 3D reconstruction, documentation, and urban co-design with non-experts. We specifically explore augmented reality as a possible solution to scalable public outreach.dLanguageTag
This training webinar is devoted specifically to getting acquainted with the GoTriple Trust Building System (TBS), a tool that enables SSH researchers to find reliable partners and connect with them through their network. dLanguageTag
This training event is devoted specifically to giving an understanding of the importance of the co-design process and the impact it has on the development of digital tools such as the GoTriple Discovery platform. It provides insight on the importance of end-user needs in the design of a discovery platform, the methods used in the TRIPLE Project to consider user needs and showcases the next steps for the GoTriple platform now that the Beta version is released.

The training session is dedicated to Visual Data Discovery in the Social Sciences and Humanities and shows how the GoTriple platform will support exploring research topics with visual search. The added value of knowledge maps and streamgraphs for research discovery are also examined.dLanguageTag
Iason Jongepier from the University of Antwerp and Melvin Wevers from the University of Amsterdam explore the Time Machine Project and how local Time Machine instances can help us expand our understanding of the social, environmental and economic history of the city.dLanguageTag
