Georeferenced maps of France from the Mechanical Curator collection
[edit]Wikimedia and the British Library are trying to georeference old maps and plans found in the Mechanical Curator collection, a set of 1 million digitised book illustrations from 19th century books. (See here for more information).
This page links to maps and plans that have already been georeferenced, from books included in this index page of titles related to France. The headings below reflect the subsections of that index page. Corresponding further maps and plans still available to georeference can be found via this accompanying georeferencing status page and then following any of the purple templated links there.
Maps and plans from other parts of the world can be found on this worldwide status page and completed page, including further maps that may relate to France in books on other index pages. However only a small fraction (about 5% in all) of the complete set of illustrations are maps and plans. Other illustrations can be found by browsing through the various book titles on the index pages; some suggestions on best practice for uploading to Commons can be found here.
