In this page, we will discuss and present our project Influencers of the past. Our goal is to show who were the notable people in Paris in 1888 and 1908 and where they lived. Here is the sketch of our project: Sketch of Influencers of the past
Main steps
Extracting the data from the directories
Our first step is to extract all the names and adresses from the two directories. To do so, we use Transkribus to get the OCR and then start to parse the informations.
Finding the geolocation of the adresses
To be able to show the adresses on the map, we need to find their geolocation (latitude/longitude coordinates).
