Okay, so I'm trying to see where I can find some images of the specific places Nelson visited. There is a blog of old postcards from Chicago..I know, a blog..but it's images! Here it is! We can just see what's useful here and see if we can use the images?

@nlottig94 what was the site you used to overlay that other historical map over a modern map?

[nlottig94]

@RJP43 Did I do it on Google Maps or on the sanborn maps page? I can't remember

[ebeshero]

@RJP43 @nlottig94 We've done this on Google Maps before, in the Pacific project here:

http://pacific.pitt.edu/HistOverlay.html

I've also played with Worldmap Warp, but their server is super slooow, so it looks as if georectification produces a ball of garbage, until you log in and look at your lovely properly overlaid map some hours(?) later. I think Google should be fine for this.

By the way, I am bringing back my old XQuery + XSLT + KML assignment for this spring's DH course!
