What could Wikimaps do?

Work with archives to open up maps from all

over the world

allowing usage of hi-res digital copies of maps for

any purpose.

Connect maps with the world's largest encyclopedia.

Allow volunteers to work with the maps

contextualizing, georeferencing and

tracing

creating a knowledge base of historical

geodata

for new, unimaginable map applications.
