creative research on the visualisation of archival datasets
About
I'm Mitchell Whitelaw, an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Arts and Design at the University of Canberra. This blog began in 2009 as documentation of a research project on the visualisation of archival datasets, supported by the National Archives of Australia under the Ian Maclean Award. Now it documents my ongoing research into the exploratory display and visualisation of large cultural collections.

What's your input data source -- is it pulling from EAD-encoded finding aids or from a database or...?

The items data is a dump from the Archives' database - originally XML, trimmed down somewhat and converted to JSON. The document images are pulled live from the Archives servers.You can access all the same data via the NAA's Recordsearch interface.
