What can you do with this library?

Work with data in simple tabular formats

Some of the nomisma.org data sets are already converted to tabular formats: if you just want to work with csv files using databases, GIS, or data visualization applicatoins, look in the tables directory of https://github.com/neelsmith/nomisma.

Example: see a Tableau visualization of Greek coin hoards.

Write your own code to analyze nomisma.org data

You can parse data sets freely available in RDF XML from http://www.nomisma.org/datasets into an object model.

nomisma is compiled for both the JVM and ScalaJS using scala versions 2.11 and 2.12, so you can use this library in web apps written in ScalaJS or on any JVM platfrom from your android phone to distributed systems like Apache Spark.

Binaries for all platforms are available from jcenter. If you are using sbt to manage your project, include Resolver.jcenterRepo in your list of resolvers:

resolvers += Resolver.jcenterRepo

and add this to your library dependencies:

"edu.holycross.shot.cite" %%% "nomisma" % VERSION
