Mapping Local History with Bard's Geographic Information Systems (GIS) students

7:00 pm EST/GMT-5
Calling all Local History Buffs! Join us at the Elmendorph on Thursday, March 2 at 7:00 p.m., to help Bard's Historical GIS (Geographic Information System) team "crowd-source" information for the 1798 Thompson survey map of Rhinebeck (which includes Red Hook). There are four known versions of this priceless, hand-drawn, illustrated map from our earliest days. Historical GIS students have created interactive versions of each map and we would like your help to build on their work, adding as much information as possible about individual waypoints. Afterwards, enjoy wine and light refreshments. Please RSVP [email protected]. 7:00 pm EST/GMT-5
For more information, call 845-758-6822, or e-mail [email protected].
