Abstract

The data consists of drawings produced by the author, depicting the architecture of three different protest camps in Spain. The data was originally collected for the author's doctoral thesis, which examines the relationship between autonomous social movements and architecture.

The data includes drawings of individual buildings at the camps, floor plans of the buildings, and sketch-like maps of the camp sites. The author of the data created the drawings on site using pen and paper. For the floor plans, the buildings were measured using a tape measure, and the dimensioned drawings were subsequently refined to make them easier to read.

A separate background information document, compiled by the author, has been archived alongside the data set; this document provides more detailed information on the buildings and locations featured in each drawing.
