Overview
For this project, the 1900 Erie Sanborn Maps were first georeferenced to their modern-day locations using ArcGIS Pro. Then, research was conducted on the city of Erie and the buildings shown in the Sanborn Maps to hone in on the themes to represent in the StoryMap. The georeferenced sheets were digitized with primary attention given to features that exemplified the themes of interest. For this project, contributors explored a number of themes, from the factories and schools to other aspects of everyday life in the city of Erie.
