Description

In this presentation I will explain how I incorporated historical GIS into my History Master's thesis last year. For this project I used ArcGIS Pro to create a Web Map, which I then used to investigate Niagara's economic development in the post-Revolutionary "Loyalist" era. Mapping historical data from account books and ledgers, and analyzing it alongside geographical features in the Niagara region, GIS technologies allowed me to bring a fresh perspective to a familiar topic.
