- Geographical Names in Valerius Flaccus's Argonautica
- An exploration of the possible or definite geographical referents of personal names used in the epic poem Argonautica (written by the Roman poet Valerius Flaccus in the 1st c. CE), investigating what conclusions, if any, we may be able to draw from their localization and clustering. Created with ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, and ArcGIS Storymaps.
- A geojson polygon of Mount Vesuvius above 200m
- I needed a polygon vector of Mount Vesuvius for a map for my book, and I couldn't find one, so I created a vector at 200m elevation from the relevant TINITALY/1.1 raster file. Feel free to download and use!
