Other Souths - Alamance County in the Civil War Era

History Professor at Elon created database. Can search the population of the civil war area, who owned land, who owned slaves, etc. Talked to professor about a "data park". Given a problem as part of a game, go out into the "data park" and search to find the resolution, like a scavenger hunt, or to build your team/strategy. Data park contains different stats on different items. You gather the data to help you win the game/complete the simulation.
