Session 4: Data analysis in Dataverse & visualization of datasets on historical maps

The CLIO INFRA project (http://www.clio-infra.eu) hosted at the International Institute of Social History (IISH, http://www.socialhistory.org) integrates a number of data(hubs) on global social, economic and institutional indicators over the past five centuries. Considering a switch to Dataverse, the IISH is currently developing visualization tools that fit on top of Dataverse, especially historical maps with temporally accurate borders, such as provided in the NLGIS (http://nlgis.nl), Labour conflicts (http://laborconflicts.socialhistory.org) projects.

This talk will introduce the Dataverse widget developed to extract, transform and load data from datasets storage to platform independent internal data warehouses with possibilities to validate and check the quality of research datasets.
