Natural history data and geographical distribution mapping

During the 2025 graduation season, I, Li Baoxi, conducted research on a data-themed project related to the Silk Road. At the initial stage of my graduation project design, I collected reference materials from authoritative sources including online museums, official publications and reputable newspapers. This research aims to promote traditional Chinese culture and facilitate cultural exchange between China and Western countries. Gathering authentic and credible background information is a core part of this project. While exploring the official website of the Silk Road Museum, I accessed abundant materials about the circulation and transportation of cultural relics along the Silk Road. With a time-honored and profound heritage, Silk Road culture in China has evolved through the changes of multiple dynasties and historical periods.
