OpenHistoricalMap/Projects/Stockholm Census Districts

Stockholms rotar

This project maps the census districts (rotar) of the city of Stockholm between 1878 and 1926. Most of the mapping has been done. Data should be linked. The districts are currently named with the addition of the years they had a certain extension. This should eventually be changed and on the whole, the project should be made to comply with whatever the standards are.

Mash up

These districts where used to collect population data and those numbers are available in the sources listed below. Data is also available from Rotemansarkivet or Open Stockholm. Maybe some kind of mashup could be made?
