In this data story we showcase the colonial objects in our dataset by answering some interesting questions.
Let us start with a highlight: if the locations of objects (in this case the location where the objects have been created) are mapped to geonames, we can use them to display them on a map to get an intuitive overview. Click on the aggregated elements to zoom in, and then click further to see a preview of the objects, and to navigate to the detailed pages for the objects.
Geolocations of object's location of creation
We do not only have the data where the objects have been created, but also their content location. The following bar chart displays this data. If you hover over the bars you see more information.
The following chart displays the distribution of materials that the colonial objects consist of.
Last but not least, let we show the objects as a gallery. You can select the artform that you want to explore.
