"Offer your data openly online... For us, @Wikidata does the heavy lifting: no need to create a custom database, allows for quick prototyping of viz, and interfaces nicely with other platforms.... The raw data of our research can be used by scholars for free long into the future"
Read about our commitment to open data & interoperability on our blog.
We think our research efforts should be reusable & play nice with other projects.

More high jinks in West Lothian, 1628. The minister of Abercorn caught people dancing on the sabbath at midsummer. He and told them to 'go away and desist' but they 'did stubbornly refuise and gave him contumelious langage'!

Great to catch up with @ScotGenNet colleagues on Zoom last night, and to hear from @Chris_R_Langley and the @MappingScotsRef project. Very interesting from a technical perspective, opens up all sorts of possibilities going forward. #OpenSource #HistoriansCollaborate

A ‘whirrycane [hurricane]’, 'violent gusts' and the ‘sadest shakeing’. Life-threatening winds are harder to connect to the #LittleIceAge than extremes of temperature or precipitation, but the #CuriousCleric, James Fraser (1634-1709), records them regularly in his Highland parish

Very interesting presentation today at Scottish Indexes conference. Love the visualizations.
Delicious, delicious detail about Scotland’s #reformazing #earlymodern ministers! Look at that popup!
Testing how much of our @NatRecordsScot manuscript data we can take from @wikidata, pass to @geojsonio, & display with @LeafletJS & the @natlibscotmaps Historic Maps layer.
