  • The gazetteer application is online

    Date: 13. December 2022
    General news

    We are happy to announce that the https://gazetteers.net web application is online.

    gazetteers.net was developed as part of the Gazetteer research project by the Herder Institute, the Institute for Regional Geography and the Justus Liebig University Gießen. The application is intended to support users in working with different digital gazetteers, and to help them explore their content and metadata structure.

    It enables users to search several place name related databases simultaneously in a unified manner and to view and compare data from different gazetteers. In addition, the application supports the identification of items in different databases which refer to the same geographical entity. By linking corresponding items across gazetteers it facilitates data aggregation and comparison.

    We hope that the application will help you in your work with gazetteers and look forward to receiving your feedback via: gazetteer-research@herder-institut.de. On behalf of the team, best regards, PD Dr. Christian Lotz (Herder Institute).
