The HGIS Club

Im Rahmen der „Digital Humanities“ hielten Historische Geografische Informationssysteme, kurz: (H)GIS, in die Geschichtswissenschaften Einzug. Idealerweise inspiriert HGIS Historiker/innen dazu, Quellen in neuer Weise zu kombinieren, geografische Kontextualisierung in ihrer Interpretation zu berücksichtigen und vor diesem Hintergrund frühere Erkenntnisse zu hinterfragen ... und vor allem: neue Fragen zu stellen!

Interdisziplinärer Arbeitskreis

Der Heidelberger HGIS Club als interdisziplinärer Arbeitskreis zwischen Geschichtswissenschaft, Geoinformatik, Archäologie prüft neue Erkennischancen und testet entsprechende Werkzeuge für die Digital Humanities and Digital Cultural Heritage.

The HGIS Club – heiMAP – in English

Since its founding in 2009, the HGIS Club has been an interdisciplinary forum for students and scientists interested in the wide field of Digital Spatial Humanities, with a hands-on focus on applications of Historical GIS. It consists of several experienced teachers from both GIScience and History/Humanities together with students with varying levels of experience in digital spatial research, working on a diverse and constantly evolving selection of projects. This has been further enriched by frequently having guests presenting their own work – the HGIS Club has established itself at the Historisches Seminar as a constant and valued source of advice and feedback for researchers on how to incorporate the dimension of space into one’s own research projects.
The idea for the Virtual Research Environment heiMAP was born from the experience gathered over the years in the HGIS Club. It became more and more apparent that many of the applications for GIS technology in History and the Humanities in general do not require anything close to the range of capabilities that software like ArcGIS and QGIS offer. Instead, with heiMAP, our goal is to provide basic GIS functionalities tailored to the needs of the end users, embedded in the infrastructure of a VRE – user management, project management and data management as well as tools for collaboration and communication between members of a research project.
