- MAPS
- LAEME contains a set of feature maps for pre-selected items, as defined by lexico-grammatical tags. For details see Overview §5.
- BROWSE FEATURE MAPS
- Clicking this brings up a list of the available maps. Clicking the 'Show Map' button will create the map. This may take a few seconds. In the case of a few features (notably negation), the maps may take up to a few minutes to load; this is due to the high number of tags involved in those maps. The maps illustrate (with red dots) the geographical distribution of individual linguistic features as indicated by each map’s title. The three different sizes of dot show relative frequency of occurrence as described in Overview §5.1. Checking the 'Show locations of other features' button enables differentiation between those text languages which do not show the particular feature but which have some other form attested for that item (blue dots) from those which have no forms at all attested for that item (white dots). LAEME aims to present a set of philologically informed maps for each item, that are optimally comparable with those presented in eLALME. The Feature Maps are listed in alphabetical order of title. Individual maps can be located also by item name, by feature, or by any other element in the map title by using the 'Find maps that have' search box.
- COMBINE FEATURE MAPS
- Retrieve the data for up to four maps, to be displayed on one map. The user can choose the colour and
shape of the symbols which will represent the different features.
- CREATE A FEATURE MAP
- Provides an option for users to make their own maps from the LAEME data.
- KEY MAPS
- The locations of LAEME texts are presented in a Key Map. 'View Key Map' displays the Key Map
in the Taskarea; 'Download Key Map' allows you to download a .pdf version of the Key Map.
