EuroSDR Seminar Graphical Interfaces for Historical data
In the domain of geographical information, recurrent stakes are to access more efficiently to digitized archives or to obsolete data. This seminar aims at presenting latest research and developments about graphical interfaces to interact with geographical historical data, at getting more insight on user communities requirements and fostering collaborations between national mapping agencies, academics and the industry in this domain.
Targeted audience is organizations who manages such archives and are facing new needs or proposing new solutions, engineers who develop innovative solutions, scientists who study or use such interfaces.
The seminar will be organized in two parts:
- Presentations: a specific care is expected about describing expected collaborations and reusable items or experience.
- A wrap up session to identify possible ways to mutualize efforts and collaborate.
