Atlas.MX is a collective of international scholars working on colonial and modern spatial history of Mexico. We are developing norms and standards so that the files and databases we use in ArcGIS may become more easily shareable and more intensively used. Atlas.MX is part of MX.Digital, a joint effort by the panelists to create large digital repositories of historical data, that can be used, downloaded and shared among scholars.
