Funded by the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and undertaken in collaboration with Presidency University, Kolkata, this project documented the shared cultural heritage of the erstwhile Dutch colony of Chinsurah. ATA employed a digital humanities approach, combining architectural research with social sciences to create a digital database of the town’s tangible and intangible heritage. Data from archival research, oral histories, building inventories, and photo documentation was mapped onto open-source GIS platforms to produce a user-friendly digital resource. This initiative provided a spatial and narrative understanding of Chinsurah’s layered history and aimed to serve as a foundation for integrated urban development that balances heritage conservation with economic, cultural, and social growth
