The Netherlands on OpenHistoricalMap
Welkom!
Welcome to the OpenHistoricalMap project page for the Netherlands!
Quite some mapping has been done in the Netherlands already, but there is still a lot of work to do. There is extensive coverage of historic and present railways, but road coverage is minimal. Some cities already have impressive mapping, but others are completely empty. All help is welcome!BAG import
- More info: OpenHistoricalMap/Projects/Netherlands/BAG
We're currently working on an import of the BAG. This Dutch government database includes all buildings that have stood in the Netherlands since 2012, including year of construction. Importing this will create a useful base layer on top of which historic things can be added.
If you want to help with or share your thoughts about this import, please join the discussion on the OHM forum.Resources
