MIRABILE-ATLAS Fellowship core objectives

  1. On-line publication, with related search functions for the search and visualization, of data
    present in MIRABILE on an atlas of medieval culture with related cross-searches and
    interactive navigation over the data retrieved from the database. All data will be transformed in
    JSON, which is the standard format for the management of data used by Elastic Search for
    indexing.
  2. Integration with information present in MIRABILE’s databases (such as the author, the
    texts, the manuscripts that conserve them and the bibliography). The development of this new
    module will provide the ability to show those database informations on a map. The
    geographical data will be loaded by the user inserting it in a text field. To facilitate the user, a
    lemmatization algorithm will be used, it will analyze the text contained in the document by
    detecting the entries in it.
  3. A user interface that will integrate the search engine results, will be implemented in the new
    project, providing a way to view the data on an interactive map.
    People with the following characteristics can apply for one of the following profiles or for both, by indicating it explicitely
