Descrizione del progetto

Naturalis Historia Romana: An Interactive Map will use Google Maps, GPS data tagging, and embedded Flash modules to tell a series of interlocking narratives about the evolution of the natural sciences in Rome. Portable to a website or a handheld device, the project will allow visitors to explore interactive maps laced with podcasts, articles, animations, and videos allowing them to mine the history of specific locations throughout the city and its environs. Naturalis Historia Romana will be a multilayered interactive map that lets visitors explore the evolution of the natural sciences in the city of Rome from Pliny the Elder to current biotechnology.
