Campus History and Spatial Scholarship

Description

This poster presentation will describe how we moved from posting scanned maps online and offering a Google Mashup for scanned aerial photographs to utilizing ArcMap, ArcGIS Server and a JavaScript web interface to turn GIS data and historic paper maps into a truly interactive digital map. Building on our successful test projects from the previous year we created an interactive campus map that shows building footprints from 1860 to the present, historic maps, transportation routes and aerial photographs as well as linking to historic photographs of buildings from the University Archives collection.
