First Collaborative Digital Scholarship Project Launched
The first Digital Scholarship Project in collaboration with Prof Celine Lai of Faculty of Arts has been soft launched together with the Digital Scholarship Projects website in early January 2018.
The project "GIS Mapping and Archaeology of Early China" was collaborated with Prof. Celine Lai of Faculty of Arts in using GIS for mapping archaeological sites embedded with unearthed bronzes details. The data originally in excel files was collected from her doctoral study on the topic and at the initiation of Prof. Lai, dynamic maps are employed to visualise the distribution of the archaeological sites for people who are interested to the topic to further study.
To enable researchers to make use of the research data of Prof. Lai and to avoid re-inventing the wheel, the project web site also provides downloadable files in three different formats with the full list of information and references on the bronzes and archaeological sites for producing the map.

- PDF file of the table for full references and quotes of information
- Files for visualising the maps and for further analysis:
- Shapefile for use in GIS software
- kmz file for use in Google Map / Google Earth
Please visit the project website: http://dsprojects.lib.cuhk.edu.hk/en/projects/gis-nao/ for these files and more information. The project will continue as more data are provided by Prof. Lai.
Apart from this collaborative project, the DS Service Team has also released another small project: Text Data Preparation: A Practice in R using the Sheng Xuanhuai Collection in demonstrating the use of R in preparing data for Chinese text-mining and analysis. Future Digital Scholarship Projects will all be available in this Digital Scholarship Projects website.
