OHM Project: Baden (Germany) (stage 1: scaffolding places)

The idea is to ...

  • ... share sources for people mapping things in Baden
  • ... map the history of place-names in Baden
  • ... map the 2 (or more) oldest still standing buildings in each place, so there is a good starting-point for geo-referencing local/regional maps for further mapping projects
  • ... for each building:
    • Map the objects by providing as exact as possible outlines of the buildings. This is important to allow for best precision when people use this data for georeferencing at a later point
    • provide start_date and end_date. If a precise year/date cannot be provided, add approximate start_date and end_date as best as you can and use start_date:edtf and end_date:edtf to specify what can be shown by the source
    • add links to:
      • Wikipedia
      • Wikimedia-commons
      • wikidata
    • link the various incarnations of a building with a Relation of type Chronology-Relation to improve findability
    • Stretch goal: see OpenHistoricalMap/Tags for info on good tagging standards
