Palestine Open Maps
Palestine Open Maps (POM) is a platform for searching, navigating, downloading and digitizing historical maps of Palestine/Israel.
I initiated the project with Visualizing Impact on discovering an online collection of hundreds of highly detailed Survey of Palestine map sheets from the British Mandate period. The idea of the project was to “open-source” these raw map sheets by making them navigable and searchable through a slippy map interface akin to Google-maps.
