The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded a $127,274 Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Office of Digital Humanities program (CFDA 45.169) to the University of Virginia (UVA) for the North American Climate History Project. This collaborative effort between UVA, Princeton University, and the American Philosophical Society aims to develop a federated weather and climate records platform to support the editorial preparation and publication of historical weather and climate data.
The project will result in the publication of the North American Climate History Digital Resource, which will provide access to these weather and climate records and serve as a platform for contributing projects, archives, and special collections. UVA is managing the overall project, with the American Philosophical Society responsible for developing a spreadsheet template, guidelines, and technical documentation to enable contributors to submit content to the prototype site. The grant period runs from March 2024 to February 2026.
