Help me turn the State Library of Victoria's digitised maps into data! https://wragge.github.io/slv-allmaps/ (bit of a soft launch, so let me know if you see any errors in the documentation...)

Once the documentation is done I'm going to ask folks to help me georeference as many SLV maps as possible before the end of my #slvresidency in December. In particular I'd like to get some of the MMBW maps done and in a spatial index. More soon!

I can use GeoIndex to view this data so why serve it as a layer in QGIS, I'm far from being able to use GIS analysis tools, even as layers set to same georeference and zooming to any level I'm finding it useful to use with other layers such as OS historic map, a better base layer for my use.

Just georeference the data!

Awesome suggestions, I'll share them -- or, please join the #georeference-tool channel in the OSMUS Slack if you're able! Jacob is the driving force, I'm just the hype man (though I'm pretty hyped!)!

You can help georeference some of the Sanborn maps. Interesting way to tour through old Richmond (and see the changing streets/names).

What a fantastic first week of our Georeference Tool! We already have over 500 image georeferences across Richmond, and we're working on importing new datasets!
Our map viewer now allows you to sort by date, and overlay Sanborn insurance maps from the 1900s.

Bumblebee colonies are annual, so all but the queens die at the end of summer. I killed five workers throughout Idaho to georeference their distribution as well as the pollinator plant they were visiting. A museum specimen is infinitely more valuable for conservation than a dead bee in the woods.

Hi Dominic! We aren't planning to georeference these maps ourselves in the near future.
However, we've just added a new georeference tool to the website which allows users to georeference any of our online maps.

Classic labels usually offered only vague information about where something was collected. But GIS changed everything! 💻
Now we can:
📌 Record precise locations with GPS technology 🛰️.
📌 Retro georeference older records using online tools.
It opens up a whole new dimension!
