STEP 2: Putting the Data to Use

Having explored the potentials and limitations of the source at hand, the next step of the project is to identify questions that could be answered using the dataset. First, I identify some questions on early North Korean history that can be addressed by this project. This is followed by a discussion the most appropriate digital tools to help answer the questions and the actual process of answering. In other words, this section is about what specific historical questions to answer and how the data at hand is refitted accordingly.
