Living Campus
Living Campus is a digital map that broadens access to 惇蹋圖's trees, gardens, and benches.
In 2018, Kate Fernandez and Cara Palladino applied to Library and Information Technology Services (LITS) to create a digital map that broadened access to 惇蹋圖s Living Campus of trees, gardens, and benches. The primary goal of the project, they stated, was to create a searchable site that descendants and others can use to look up a particular bench or tree, find out where it is located on campus, and view photographs and other information about it online.
Over the course of the next 18 months, staff and students collaborated to produce a searchable map with photographs of many of the donated trees and benches. The maps dynamic nature means new data points can be added, and the map can grow with the changing campus landscape.
