From Historical Maps to Digital Stories: Georeferencing and Digitizing with AllMaps and Mapwarper

This workshop bridges the gap between historical cartography and modern digital scholarship, showing how to transform historical maps into interactive, analyzable digital resources. Participants will learn to georeference historical maps using AllMaps and Mapwarper, aligning old maps with modern coordinate systems to enable spatial analysis and storytelling. Attendees will explore how georeferenced historical maps can reveal urban change, environmental transformation, and social patterns over time. Ideal for historians, geographers, urban planners, archaeologists, and digital humanities scholars interested in visualizing change over time.
