PowerVU is a Drupal distribution developed to support art history and visual research projects. This will be made available as an open-source tool for researchers and publishers to develop digital projects that will allow management of research data, texts, images and other media in the back end, and to compile these for a public-facing digital edition. The themes will allow researchers to use rich visualisations such as maps, network graphs, and embedded video, audio and 3D models. Each project can present knowledge in different ways, testing the boundaries of the academic text.
To see examples of projects using Drupal to organise and publish research see our digital publications page.
