Empirical methodology supported by computer technology is a hallmark of the linguistic research at the University of Zurich. Advanced digital resources have been created and exploited in all language seminars and institutes. These growing resources call for a more systematic approach to data management. Additionally, the URPP Language and Space has brought in new opportunities to combine linguistic with spatial data for interdisciplinary research, which brings new challenges. This creates a good context for a thorough discussion on how to integrate, develop, and exploit currently available resources.
To facilitate the data-related activities of the members of the URPP and other UZH researches with an interest or experience in empirical methods, the three URPP labs, CorpusLab, GISLab, VideoLab, are organising jointly a series of workshops entitled “Working with linguistic and spatial data”.
The first workshop in the series, “How to make data reusable” took place on 29 May 2015.
