Finally, at #ChartingDSEA, two panels on geospatial project. First speaker: Gang Li, on Mapping Islamic Religious Sites in China. He reminds us that to conduct digital scholarship, we need to have the data to do so - scholarship needs to be aware of data availability biases on our research! And by combatting digital disappearance, we manage to put marginalised objects back "on the map"!
Now, Yangyang Lan on ' Building a digital map of Chinese religious texts: The Project of Chinese Religious Text Authority (CRTA)'. different religion's texts (incl. scrolls, morality books, gazetteers, periodicals, etc.) become available on one platform.
ChinaText: Users can search materials and metadata in a Wiki-type visualisation.
Goal: assess the texts' impact on identity formation.
