Presented by Vanderbilt University Libraries' GIS Lab in collaboration with Special Collections and University Archives with support from The Curb Center for Art, Enterprise & Public Policy.
Join us during Geography Awareness Week and GIS Day for a series of events that highlight the artistry and significance of historical maps!
This hands-on workshop will guide participants through the process of digitizing features from historical maps using ArcGIS Pro. Participants will learn to capture and vectorize map elements, such as rivers or streets, for use in modern geographic analyses.
Goals: 1) Understand the process and techniques for digitizing historical map features. 2) Learn best practices for ensuring accuracy and quality in digitization.
