SUMMARY:Deep Mapping/ Charleston’s New History
DESCRIPTION:At Charleston Library Society. While not a term currently fam
 iliar to most\, deep mapping is a rapidly growing field\, and one of the
  most unique ways to engage a community in creating detailed\, public-fa
 cing digital maps that integrate spatial\, historical\, cultural\, and e
 nvironmental data to tell the full and broader story of a place and its 
 people. Over the last year and a half\, a small group from Charleston ha
 s initiated this process for the Lowcountry\, working closely with Don L
 afreniere \, Director of the Community Deep Mapping Institute at Michiga
 n Technological University\, and James Newhard\, Director of the Center 
 for Historical Landscapes. Join Don and James\, along with Doug Rivet\, 
 Assistant Professor of Political Science at the College of Charleston\, 
 and CLS Director of Development Jen Comer for a riveting discussion abou
 t what has already been completed\, the insights gleaned\, and what we’l
 l see in the next phase of the project. Purchase Tickets HERE! About Don
  Lafreniere Dr. Don Lafreniere is Professor of Geography & GIS\, Directo
 r of the Center for Geospatial Research and Technology\, and Director of
  the Community Deep Mapping Institute at Michigan Technological Universi
 ty. He has led dozens of projects and published extensively on topics su
 ch GIS approaches to historic preservation\, community resiliency\, hous
 ing\, and children’s health. He is an expert in GIS-based spatial data i
 nfrastructures to support economic development\, heritage tourism\, and 
 preservation in post-industrial communities. About James Newhard James N
 ewhard is Director of the Center for Historical Landscapes at the Colleg
 e of Charleston\, where he co-directs the Spatial History of Charleston.
  A Registered Professional Archaeologist\, his research focuses on lands
 cape archaeology\, archaeoinformatics\, geospatial analysis\, and the lo
 ng-term histories of human-environmental systems. His work has included 
 field and digital humanities projects in Greece\, Turkey\, Albania\, the
  Ohio Valley\, and the Carolina Lowcountry. At Charleston\, he additiona
 lly has led projects involving historical GIS\, spatial databases\, and 
 community-engaged approaches to documenting layered cultural landscapes.
  His current work with SHOC brings together deep mapping\, public histor
 y\, and community-centered approaches to improve access to Charleston’s 
 dispersed historical records and to support descendant communities\, pre
 servation advocacy\, and more equitable understandings of place. About D
 oug Rivet Douglas Rivet is Assistant Professor of Political Science and 
 Director of the Urban and Regional Planner Certificate Program at the Co
 llege of Charleston. As a geographer\, his work is grounded in urban geo
 graphy\, city planning\, and geospatial analysis. His research examines 
 the relationships among urban environments\, transportation systems\, de
 velopment\, and rehabilitation\, with particular focus on how built\, so
 cial\, and natural systems shape urban spaces over time. Drawing on expe
 rience in local government\, GIS\, property assessment\, and policy\, he
  brings applied urban expertise to historical and community-based spatia
 l research. His work with the Spatial History of Charleston integrates h
 istorical cartography\, GIS\, deep mapping\, and public-facing geospatia
 l approaches to support interdisciplinary scholarship\, planning\, and p
 ublic engagement. About Jennifer Comer Jennifer Comer\, the Director of 
 Development & Membership at the Charleston Library Society\, will modera
 te the panel. Comer has ten years of experience in grant administration\
 , having worked for the Morgan Library & Museum and Bloomberg Philanthro
