Peripleo LaNC is a prototype application for spatio-temporal search and visualization of collection data, currently under development as part of the Locating a National Collection project (LaNC).
LaNC investigates how creating links between locations in different collections might open up new forms of research, engagement and interaction for different audiences. Based at the British Library, project partners include: National Trust, Historic Royal Palaces, Historic England, Historic Environment Scotland, Museum of London Archaeology, Portable Antiquities Scheme, English Heritage.
LaNC is a Foundation project within the AHRC-funded Towards a National Collection Programme.
