Information Visualisation for Digital History

Aim: This application provides a review of websites identified as best practices in the field of information visualisation for digital history. The application is searchable by both critical tools (e.g., radial tree, satellite view) and best practices. It serves as a reference to design and discuss the use of visualisation tools in current and new digital history projects.
