(2/3) Map of #S_T_Gill's 1852 scenes of the gold diggings in Victoria, Australia - at least the readily mappable ones. Built in OpenStreetMap's #uMap with #AllMaps tiles for custom background. #historicalMapping #historyAU

(1/3) I recently took advantage of Tim @wragge Sherratt's #SLVResidency to see what #StateLibraryVIC maps might be useful for mapping scenes of the 1850s Australian gold rush. I found a perfectly suited 1853 map of Mount Alexander / Bendigo goldfields. The neat part is using the @IIIF map tiles via #AllMaps without having to go through #MapWarper. #digitalHumanities

Georeferencing SLV Maps

If you're curious about the new #IIIF and #Allmaps partnership, please join us this Wednesday, December 10 at 12pm ET for a demo of Allmaps, a a look at the roadmap for new IIIF member benefits, and Q&A.

Zoom information is on the IIIF Community Calendar: iiif.io/community

For a bit of fun I added this 1871 bird's-eye view of #Melbourne to @wragge's georeferenced maps. It doesn't rectify properly of course, but it's still handy to be able to find it by location. In other words, it's referenced but not rectified. #allMaps

Toujours #IIIF je comprends pas pourquoi #allmaps ne reconnait pas les manifests des AD 13 :/ C'est frustrant, car c'était une belle possibilité de démo intéressant d'autres profils que médiation culturelle.

I bet jobs this great for map nerds are rare. I love to just go to the Leventhal and look at their exhibits every time I'm at the #BPL. They posted 2 jobs today, one in education and one in UX/UI development.
