Making Meaning from Data (Joint SCS/AIA Panel)

December 10, 2014 Posted by admin under Uncategorized

On Sunday, January 11, 2015 at the SCS/AIA meeting in New Orleans, the Digital Classics Association will host a panel on “Making Meaning from Data” from 8-11am. The session may be of interest to forum members.

“Big data” is becoming increasingly significant in classics. Archaeologists can now generate vast amounts of digital information. Online repositories for the study of geography, prosopography, poetry, and other areas continue to appear, along with new protocols and tools for exploring them. This panel addresses the changing research environment with presentations that show how we can make meaning from our data, and so develop new and integrated perspectives on the classical world.
