The new logo reflects this mission by evoking the points and paths on a map in the shape of a leaf - at once a callback to the old logo of an oak leaf motif popular in Eastern European culture, and a reference to the environmentally focused work of Dr. Kelly O'Neill and her team.
The modern geometric design also highlights the digital core of the Imperiia Project, represented by the basic building blocks of GIS: points, lines, and polygons.
All elements together, then, beautifully capture the contributions of the project to spatial humanities, where history and geography intersect with nature and technology.
