First off, just wanted to say that I&#x27;m in the process of learning programming. I&#x27;m an English lit major and this is just a project that I&#x27;ve been using to learn.<p>I recently used BigQuery (in conjunction with Google Apps Scripts and Sheets) to get all the coordinates of all the locations mentioned in Herman Melville&#x27;s works. I then mapped those coordinates using the Google Maps Javascript API.<p>You can click on each bubble for the name of the location and how many times it was mentioned. Bubble size is relative to amount of mentions.<p>For more details on how the maps were made, I set up a more technical (although probably poorly written) blog post here: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gregorygascon.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2016&#x2F;4&#x2F;25&#x2F;mapping-literature-with-google-bigquery-and-maps-javascript-api" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gregorygascon.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2016&#x2F;4&#x2F;25&#x2F;mapping-literatu...</a><p>Also big thanks to <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;gdeltproject.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;gdeltproject.org&#x2F;</a> for the datasets!
