Digital Humanities Tools and Resources

Most digital projects rely on the synthesis, analysis, and visualization of data. This data can come from text, surveys, and can even be crowd sourced from the general public. Once this data has been gathered, it will need to be properly cleaned and organized to be efficiently used. On this page, you will find a list of tools that will allow you to easily work with collections of data.
