Atlascine is an open-source online platform for annotating, mapping, and exploring transcribed audiovisual media. It enables the geographical and thematic visualization of stories through an interactive map, offering innovative ways to navigate within and across narratives. By foregrounding spatial relationships and trajectories, Atlascine facilitates the analysis of how stories unfold across places. The platform has been used both as a research and exhibition tool in fields such as oral history, film studies, and urban studies, and is well suited to qualitative research projects and story-based public exhibitions.

Workflow for text data in Atlascine
📖 📚 🔖
Following increasing interest, we have added a page to the wiki which provides instructions for working with text-based media (such as novels or interview transcripts) in Atlascine, without an accompanying media (audio or video) file. Although at the moment it is more of a workaround and requires some manual processing, we are working on simplifying this process and perhaps eventually integrating native support for text-based media in Atlascine.
