EuropeanaConnect - Europeana4D

Exploring data in space and time


The amount of online data that supplies geo-spatial and temporal metadata has grown rapidly in recent years. Social networks like Twitter, Flickr, and YouTube are popular providers of masses of data that are hard to browse.


Our europeana 4D interface – e4D – enables comparative visualisation of multiple queries and supports data annotated with time span data. We implemented our design in a prototype application in the context of the European project  EuropeanaConnect . It is based on a client-server architecture that charges the client with the main functionality of the system.
