In collaboration with LARHRA, we develop Geovistory, a data publication platform and virtual research environment for the Digital Humanities.
Test it.

Migration & marriage in Venice of the 16th/17th century: Transcribing investigations (Processetti) conducted by the episcopal authority of Venice on brides & grooms of foreign origine, the projects makes use of Geovistory in order to annotate, systematically extract, manage and visualize information.
FAIR Data Publication: In close collaboration with the Digital History research team of LARHRA (joint research unit of the CNRS and the Universities of Lyon & Grenoble), Kleiolab develops the Geovistory eco-system promoting FAIR research data production and publication.
Aging from a Female Perspective: The Diaries of Anna Maria Preiswerk-Iselin (1758-1840) as a source for insights on the perception and coping with old age, illness, pain, and death. Geovistory is used to annotate the diary transcriptions and publish them as a digital edition.
Maritime History (pilot): Geovistory was used to integrate and structure various data collections related to the history of the Dutch East India Company. It allowed to quickly and easily create insightful visualizations. The semantic data produced with Geovistory is ready to be published.
Geovistory is a collaborative research environment, allowing you to pursue your research project with your colleagues or individually.
Geovistory allows you to start right-away with your research thanks to the pre-configured profiles containing the most relevant entity classes. Profiles can be extended according to the needs of your research question.
Thanks to its data repository overarching all projects, Geovistory allows you to draw on data and information curated by previous research while you keep complete control over your own project.
Geovistory reproduces the complete research process in digital form.
Compile your library with historical sources and transcriptions. Import pre-existing data collections.
Annotate and link your sources with structured data. Manage structured data around your research topic and build your own information system.
Analyse your data, generate (geographic) visualisations, export data as needed and write your stories.
Publish your stories and present your findings and your project specific information system to the public.
Our Data Model is based on longstanding experience – it is the key to Geovistory implementing the FAIR principles.
Our data model corresponds to the growing demand in research and new funding requirments to produce open, interoperable and reusable research data.
Geovistory contributes to creating an open pool of well curated research data about historical realities. Structured data generated in Geovistory are published under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 licence and can be reused under the same licence.
Thanks to our event-centrered data model building on CIDOC-CRM, events and phenomena can be easily captured and entities changing over time are adequatly represented.
To make your research data easily reusable in accordance with the FAIR principles, we design together with you the data model on which your research questions are based.
We model the information in your existing data sets according to the CIDOC-CRM ontology and merge them so that a uniform and information-rich data set is created, which - if desired - can be managed and analysed in Geovistory.
We extend Geovistory with features such as analysis tools or export formats to meet the research requirements of your project.
We conduct training courses for you and your research team on all aspects of working with ontology-based virtual research platforms such as Geovistory.
