Abstract
Interpreting the need to process complex data in contemporary research processes, the research group worked on developing a web-based tool that integrated the potential of the visual language of interactive infographics into the process of organizing documentary sources. After analysing the major tools currently used to search and catalogue data through online collaborative systems and the study of specific examples of data visualisation, the paper presents the project for an online platform that allows researchers to analyse and query data in order to create transversal readings and new narrations that make it possible to interpret the field of study in new and original ways.
期刊介绍:
CIRES-IT, e-ISSN 2239-4303, provides a forum for the exchange and sharing of know-how in the areas of Digitalization and Multimedia Technologies and Information & Communication Technology (ICT) in support of Cultural and environmental Heritage (CH) documentation, preservation and fruition. It publishes comprehensive reviews on specific fields, regular research papers and short communications in a timely fashion. The Journal aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental results and theoretical work in a comprehensive way. Restrictions on the length of papers is negotiable with the Editors. There are, in addition, other features that this Journal encourages: Electronic files regarding the full details of theoretical derivations, detailed experimental results, high-resolution renderings, short video animations and audio/video documentaries can be deposited as supplementary material to support the article.
