The field is broad, including historians from a wide array of subfields and areas of study. Our goal here is to allow scholars to get in contact with each other and learn of new work and projects.

About
Using historical geographical information systems (GIS) research, data mining, linked open data, and other digital tools to expand my tools for historical analysis. Using websites, blogs, podcasts, and social media to expand the reach of and audience for my scholarship -- and teaching others to do the same.
