To create an online crowdsourcing tool that will combine data from
digitised historical Scottish Post Office Directories with
contemporaneous historical maps

• Historic maps georeferenced by NLS
• PODs digitised by NLS with the Internet Archive
• Project focussed on 3 volumes of PODs: 1784-5; 1865; 1905-6
• Scalable to accommodate 400 Scottish PODs currently being digitised
• POD entries georeferenced by moving a pin on a digitised map thus
facilitating the addition of a grid reference to the OCR’d POD held in XML
database
• Mass geo-coding of PODs using Google geocoding services
• Mechanism to check user-generated content such as georeferences
• Amplification of tool and API via Social Media Channels
• Each POD entry will be accessible via the API through a unique URI -
opening up content to LOD cloud through RDF & Ontologies (geonames,
DBPedia)
