How did the Ottoman Empire operate? 

Mapping Ottoman Epirus (MapOE) seeks to answer this question through big data, spatial and network analysis, visualization, and various other digital methods.

Mapping Ottoman Epirus is a project designed and coordinated by Ali Yaycioglu, Antonis Hadjikyriacou, Erik Steiner and Fatma Öncel, with the technical assistance of Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA) in collaboration with Institute of Historical Research - National Hellenic Research Foundation in Athens.
