Towards a Query-driven Heritage-data Visualization Tool

Lee F. Williams, Jonathan C. Roberts · Eurographics · 2014

Many heritage organisations hold databases that contain many millions of records. These are huge datasets that store historic records and often focus on sites and monuments; especially sites of archaeological and historic importance. This data is often placed online, but, especially for research purposes there is a need and opportunity to analyse, interact and visualize this data in new ways. In this paper we present an initial prototype to create an advanced query tool, that can represent and visualize Heritage Environment Record data. We discuss the potential of this tool over conventional methods and present future developments.
