Expofinder
Unified repository of information on artistic exhibitions in Spain. It contains more
than 72,500 actors, catalogs, companies producing museum facilities,
institutions, exhibitions and artworks since 2000.
In addition, it includes around 400,000 metadata, 170,000 relationships between
records and 225,000 taxonomic assignments.
Pathfinder
Online application designed to obtain geographic and statistical information and
generate new knowledge from the data stored in
Expofinder.
In order to do this, it uses quantification
techniques for treatment of previously systematized, ordered and normalized data. It is a scientific tool
allowing the user to verify and test their hypotheses.
Microsites
Easy online application, with not requirements of special user knowledge,
dealing with the data kept in
Expofinder
to perform searches and analysis on a reduced scale over the features and relationships of the records,
grouped into collections according to their characteristics.
Includes a tool to execute
SQL
queries.
Experiments
iArtHis_LAB has developed some micro-applications for specific tasks performance.
Some of them try to solve aspects poorly analyzed in the context of Art History using
quantitative perspective and by means of a digital approach, but always retaining
the role of a not finalist tool, but merely auxiliary as a service to
the researcher's interests.
