Post details: Map Digitization05/08/08Map DigitizationFor those of you who wonder what I've been up to this year, and of course I'm wondering that myself some days, I've been working a lot on analyzing the housing market during the Great Depression. This all dates back to me going to College Park, MD last summer and taking thousands of photos at the National Archives, though of course through the grant that my adviser got, so I definitely can't take much credit. Anyways... Some of the photos I took during my trip to the National Archives last summer were of various maps that indicated survey neighborhoods. These surveys contained a lot of neighborhood level information that we can do some pretty cool stuff with. Anyways, a side project of mine which may be useful in my dissertation is to digitize some of the old maps. My initial work has been in New York City, which unfortunately a hired gun took some not so fantastic photos of the maps -Trevor Filed Under: Daily Life @ 4:33 pm by Hemeac Trackback address for this post:http://hemeac.com/htsrv/trackback.php/605
