Conceptualizing Humanities GIS: An Expert Planning Workshop on Religion in the Atlantic World
A 3-day invitational workshop for 10 experts in historical Geographical Information Systems, religion in the Atlantic world, and cultural mapping, which will result in a book on the workshop topic.
This proposal for an expert planning conference on Humanities GIS imagines a future for the humanities arising from the cultivation of interfaces between the humanities and social sciences. A research project and book will stem from the workshop. The audience for this project includes both specialists and non-specialists, including teachers who must help their students understand the local and global context of events.
