Extractions: Electronic Cultural Atlas Initiative Conference: Sydney Nine years ago a small group of researchers in the United States of America, interested in publishing the results of their work in a digital map format, along with images and text, formed the Electronic Cultural Atlas Initiative (ECAI). Around 100 delegates drawn from the United Kingdom, Asia, the United States and Australia heard ECAI director, Lewis Lancaster, open the conference and set the theme by stating that digital data needs not only to be persistent but needs to be of high quality, achieved by peer review. The first day focused on issues relating to e-Scholarship and knowledge management followed by Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the Web. Catherine Cardee of the California Digital Library stressed the need for standardised metadata and data sets to allow the exchange of data. Karen Kemp of the University of Redlands addressed the interaction between the humanities and GIS. While the former documents the human record through time by studying historic documents and cultural objects, GIS demonstrates the physical impact of places and regions on the structure of human society. Thirteen papers were presented during the afternoon under the banner of GIS, databases and the web. Susan Whitfield and Colin Chinnery, two members of the International Dunhuang project, sponsored by the British Library, addressed a number of concerns relating to their project. There is concern at the growing incidence of digitisation at the expense of traditional resources, whether in libraries or museums and the economic and resource costs involved in such projects. Digitisation should be seen as aiding scholarly research and encouraging the development of specialist staff. Digital maps have not only been developed to interface with photographic images of the objects in the project but also to locate information distributed over a 20 square mile area. More detailed information on the project can be found at:
