Mapping Tibetan Placenames
About the Collection
"Mapping Tibetan Placenames" is a digital initiative aimed at documenting and standardizing the diverse names used for places across the Tibetan Plateau. In the multilingual context of Tibetan, English, and Chinese, placenames often vary significantly in spelling, pronunciation, and usage. This project seeks to bring consistency to these geographic names, providing a comprehensive resource for researchers, linguists, and anyone interested in the geographic and cultural landscape of Tibet.
Through the compilation of Tibetan, English, and Chinese placenames, this platform highlights the complexities of transliteration and differences in naming conventions. By offering an accessible reference, the project aims to promote a deeper understanding of place names while fostering accurate communication across languages and cultures.
About CollectionBuilder
This project was built as part of the CollectionBuilder LIS Student Program.
CollectionBuilder is a project of University of Idaho Library's Digital Initiatives and the Center for Digital Inquiry and Learning (CDIL) following the Lib-Static methodology. Powered by the open source static site generator Jekyll and a modern static web stack, it puts collection metadata to work building beautiful sites.
The basic theme is created using Bootstrap. Metadata visualizations are built using open source libraries such as DataTables, Leafletjs, Spotlight gallery, lazysizes, and Lunr.js. Object metadata is exposed using Schema.org and Open Graph protocol standards.
