OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Digital Mapping for Historians
A practical demonstration of mapmaking using ArcGIS, followed by a short series of hands-on exercises. Key topics will include distribution maps, data-driven symbology and georeferencing scans/photos of historic maps. This session is not a fully-fledged GIS course — it aims to introduce the software at a very basic level and give a sense of its research potential.
Please remember your Bodleian Card to get into the building!
