O mapeamento do patrimônio arqueológico levantado pelo ProjetoPipag se deu com o uso de geotecnologias digitais, mais especificamentepor meio de um Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG). O artigo em questãotem o objetivo de discutir a metodologia utilizada para tal, mas não sem antescontextualizá-la a partir de uma abordagem mais geral sobre o impacto, os desafios e as oportunidades colocadas pela presença crescente dessas tecnologiasno ofício do historiador. A experiência, assim relatada, concluiu o artigo, nãoapenas exemplifica a conveniência da tecnologia para a espacialização da pesquisarealizada no âmbito do Pipag, como enfatiza sua capacidade de fazê-la de formaamplamente sinérgica, ao permitir a devida articulação entre as diversas iniciativase investigações envolvidas.
Digital humanities research promotes the intersection between digital technologies and humanities, emphasizing free knowledge sharing and collaborative work. Based on digital humanities features, this paper describes the architecture of a computational platform for collaborative historical research designed and developed in an ongoing project called Pauliceia 2.0. This project aims to produce historical data of São Paulo city from 1870 to 1940 and to develop a computational platform that allows researchers to explore, integrate and share urban historical data sets. The Pauliceia 2.0 platform main goal is to use volunteered geographical information (VGI) and crowdsourcing concepts to produce past geographical data and to allow historians to share historical data sets resulting from their researches. In this work, we present the Pauliceia 2.0 platform architecture and its underlying VGI protocol.
