Overview

This hands-on workshop will provide an overview of formats and structure of relationship data represented through digital objects. It will focus on the visualisation of this data for exploratory purposes, thereby exposing and substantiating patterns and knowledge in existing research data to help inform your digital scholarly practice.

It will present basic concepts in network analysis and provide hands-on experience using the GEPHI platform as a means of conducting analysis through visualisation and manipulation of data for presentation.

GEPHI is a mature tool that provides a superb starting point from which we will explore its capabilities through a short hands-on tutorial.

No prior experience in network visualisation is required and no advance preparation for this workshop is necessary.
