Viabundus on the Road: Meet our PI Bart Holterman today in Washington D.C. at #DH2024 (https://t.co/MnLC9d9MSQ). In the panel "Grounding Truth: Critical and Data-Driven Approaches to the History of Travel" @rmidura and other @emdigit members discuss premodern spatial data. Fresh!
Geospatial methods can detect location names from historical maps, make them searchable, and allow for the automated extraction of geographic data from those maps.

This summer, explore street maps of late medieval and early modern northern Europe (1350-1650) with Viabundus @theroadsproject. It includes a database of settlements, towns, tolls, and other information that would be useful to any pre-modern traveler.

The real reason why the Roman Empire was such a success, and sustainable, too: great public transport infrastructure...

Congratulations to all involved! A great project and made even more amazing by making the data publically available. A sure template for other similar projects!
