Introduction to Computational Map Studies

What if you could search inside maps? Now you can! Using MapReader, participants will learn to ask questions of digitized maps, and create datasets based on their visual and textual content. Along the way, we will address key issues around computer vision in the humanities, grappling with error at scale, and working with maps as data. No previous programming experience required.

This Faculty Hub and CLAAI co-hosted event will be available both in-person and via livestream to ACS—while we'll do our best to include online viewers in Q&A when possible, the main interactive experience will be for those joining us in person. Lunch provided for all in-person participants. Zoom link: https://urichmond.zoom.us/j/86392184260?pwd=HsDCtZVArRIwIjDnzvV5xHNLKE2PGj.1
