Gerbil

Gerbil is a generic framework for visualization and analysis of multispectral and hyperspectral data that strives to both bring new innovations in analysis capabilities and be of use in a wide range of hyperspectral data applications. In a nutshell, Gerbil lets you… explore a multispectral or hyperspectral image before processing it, apply common computer vision algorithms adapted to hyperspectral data, cluster and label image pixels for your application scenario, assess your own algorithms via high-dimensional data visualization, use an intuitive interface for teaching multispectral imaging and reflectance analysis. One example application for Gerbil is finding hidden information in multispectral scans of old manuscripts or art pieces.

TRAViz

One of the substantial tasks in the field of textual criticism is called collation, which is the cautious comparison of various editions of one and the same text. The traditional approach of a humanities scholar is to put the texts of several editions next to each other and mark the differences among the textual entities (e.g., sentences, sections, chapters). Since this is an extremely laborious approach many Digital Humanities projects investigate tools that support the humanities scholars with computational methods. TRAViz is a JavaScript library that was developed within the Digital Humanities project eTRACES. It generates visualizations for Text Variant Graphs that show the variations between different editions of texts. TRAViz supports the collation task by providing methods to: - align various editions of a text - visualize the alignment - improve the readability for Text Variant Graphs compared to other approaches - interact with the graph to discover how individual editions disseminate

GeoTemCo

The amount of online data annotated with geospatial and temporal metadata has grown rapidly in the recent years. Providers like Flickr and Twitter are popular, but hard to browse. Many systems exist that, in multiple linked views, show the data under geospatial, temporal, and topical aspects. GeoTemCo is a web-application which easily can be utilized to visualize such kind of data, and furthermore, it allows the comparative analysis of several datasets. GeoTemCo consists of several views showing the datas' several dimensions: a map view for the geospatial distribution of items, a time view for the temporal distribution of items and a detail view for the inspection of individual items. A broad range of interaction abilities allows for explorative comparison and analysis of different datasets representing different topics. GeoTemCo focuses on supporting the user to: - analyze and compare temporal trends - analyze and compare geospatial distributions - detect cooccurences between data items of different datasets - compare geospatial migrations of topics over time - find causalities between different datasets

VSim

VSim facilitates the real-time exploration of highly detailed, three-dimensional computer models in both formal and informal educational settings. Beyond real-time interaction with three-dimensional content, this NEH-funded software offers two critical functions for academic use of interactive computer models: the narrative feature allows users to create linear presentations within the virtual space (akin to PowerPoint or Prezi within a three-dimensional world), and the embedded resource section allows users to embed within the virtual space annotations and links to primary and secondary resources about the modeled environment.

Collaboration

Pivotal Tracker

Share a project action board in real time, see milestones and upcoming goals. Easy-to-use features allows for edits in the project timeline, and the tracker predicts timeline for next goal achievement based on previously entered data. You can create individual project lines, or stories, that come together to create an epic, or larger project. There are charts showing your historical trends and anything else you'd like to monitor. This tool works with various other apps, listed here: http://www.pivotaltracker.com/community/app-bazaar

Slack

Slack is a team-based communication and archiving platform. It allows for both synchronous and asynchronous communications, channels for managing specific streams, full user management and integration with a wide variety of social media and storage providers. It is free for limited (rather generous) use and provides one the best means to allow for individual communication patterns within a managed project to be facilitated. Allowing for the quick and informal communications, hashtagged for quick scanning and searching as well as targeted messaging makes it a very compelling project tool. The addition of specific mobile clients with notifications makes it a very effective project management tool.
