Timelines and Storymaps

Qualitative Data Analysis at UTS series 

'Timelines and Storymaps'  

This is the second session in the ten-part series: Qualitative Data Analysis at UTS. The aim of this series is to showcase and celebrate the diverse and innovative ways UTS researchers are working with qualitative data.

In this session Dr Alana Piper, from the Social and Political Sciences Program, will examine the types of visualisations that can be used to convey a narrative about temporal and geographic data, and explores some of the critical thinking around timeline visualisations. 

The focus is on visualisations that tell a story, rather than ones that use/require numbers. A range of tools for creating such visualisations will be outlined, and participants will take an in-depth, hands-on look at using open-source platforms Timeline.JS and Storymap.JS from Knightlab*.


* please note, this session will be recorded.
