Space, Data, Place: Digital Tools for Australia's Deep Past

Digital mapping is becoming an increasingly common and increasingly prominent tool for historical research in Australia, providing historians with new ways of visualising, representing, and communicating the past.
In this seminar, Mike Jones (ANU Centre for Deep History), Fiannuala Morgan (ANU and National Library of Australia), Emma Thomas (UNSW Laureate Centre for History & Population), and Bill Pascoe (University of Melbourne and University of Newcastle Centre for 21st Century Humanities) showcase their work on digital mapping projects, discuss the evolution of their projects, and reflect on the historical research, digital humanities skills, and cultural, ethical, and political considerations that underpin these outputs.
'Space, Data, Place: Digital Tools for Australia's Deep Past' was hosted by the ANU's Centre for Environmental History and Research Centre for Deep History on 23 August 2022 as part of the 'Deep Conversations' seminar series.
