Abstract The emerging creative practices of digital collections are increasing in prominence thanks to the access to, and appeal of, data visualizations. Interactive data visualizations, such as a map, timeline, chart, graph, or artist’s rendering of data, enable users to pursue their own research interests within a collection and participate in new areas of research. Use of these data visualizations enhances the scope of the collection and enables a modern and diverse thematic collection to emerge. This article considers the question: Does the addition of data visualizations affect how users participate with a research collection? Impacts on collection development, application of user-centered design, and analysis of users’ exploratory strategies are discussed. Examples of data visualizations used in digital humanities projects and digital collections are presented as case studies.

作为参与式研究的数据可视化：激发用户驱动研究的数字收藏模型

摘要 由于数据可视化的访问和吸引力，数字馆藏的新兴创意实践越来越突出。交互式数据可视化，例如地图、时间线、图表、图形或艺术家对数据的渲染，使用户能够在馆藏中追求自己的研究兴趣并参与新的研究领域。这些数据可视化的使用扩大了馆藏的范围，并使现代和多样化的主题馆藏得以出现。本文考虑的问题是：添加数据可视化是否会影响用户参与研究集合的方式？讨论了对馆藏开发、以用户为中心的设计的应用以及用户探索策略分析的影响。
