GhentCDH proudly presents Ghent Mapped, a presentation platform that spatially unlocks the splendor of Ghent's heritage collections. It stacks 20 historical maps, 4000 places and 10.000 pieces of heritage. ghentcdh.ugent.be/projects/gent-… Powered by Omeka @IIIF CLARIAH-VL

Preview of the new map colorization feature of the Allmaps Viewer. Works great in combination with background removal for comparing maps (in this case two reconstruction plans of the city of Rotterdam by Witteveen and van Traa).

Together with Manuel Claeys Bouuaert, I'm working on implementing thin plate spline map warping in Allmaps Viewer. Look at these smooth transitions when switching between transformations 🧈

4/ @mapninja used Felt, IIIF.io, and Allmaps.org to georeference 1747 Plan van Amsterdam from the Conrad Collection on Dutch Waterways and share it on a digital map: felt.com/map/IIIF-Allma…

@tvm Athenaeumbibliotheek Hee Thomas, zo cool! Picturae Nederland heeft die #IIIF functie blijkbaar voor al hun klanten beschikbaar gemaakt want voor Het Utrechts Archief had ik vanmiddag binnen no-time huisnummer-plattegronden uit 1940 uit onze beeldbank ingeladen in AllMaps voor #georeference #AllMaps Bert Spaan

‼️ Excited to share that National Endowment for the Humanities has awarded a grant to Leventhal Map & Education Center at the BPL & @AGSLib to support the development of allmaps.org! Over the coming 3 years, this grant will support improving Allmaps, creating docs/tutorials & increasing the number of institutions that use Allmaps!

📢📢We're hiring!! As part of an NEH Digital Humanities grant, we’re seeking a creative UX/UI developer to help us refine and develop new features for the Allmaps platform. To apply: bit.ly/3EHS5RA

Just a reminder that we'll begin reviewing applications for the Allmaps UX/UI Position this week, but we'll continue to accept applications on a rolling basis until the position is filled x.com/bertspaan/stat…

Launch week! The Protomaps https://bsky.app/profile/protomaps.com technical documentation has a new site, with a new tutorial, interactive maps, and client-side search: docs.protomaps.com and it's now open source on GitHub! github.com/protomaps/docs

📍With just a few lines of code, you can now overlay historic maps on a Leaflet map with the new Allmaps plugin. See observablehq.com/@allmaps/leafl… to try it out‼️

You can now jump directly from our digital collections portal into Allmaps, where you can explore the georeferencing overlays, and help us improve the georeferencing data that makes our digital maps more engaging. More from @itspangler: leventhalmap.org/articles/new-f… cc Bert Spaan

More to come, but already very proud of the results of the Geomatics Synthesis Project BK TUDelft to georeference C19 topographic map series of the Netherlands from Nationaal Archief by using the original corner coordinates of the sheets viewer.allmaps.org/?url=https%3A%…

Twee kaarten van de Utrechtse Spoorwegwerken van de jaren '30 gegeorefereerd. Fluitje van een cent met AllMaps: viewer.allmaps.org/?url=https%3A%…. Bedankt Bert Spaan en Jules.
