The project consists of extracting the available data from the Paris directory of businesses of 1897 and visualising it on a map of the city. The user will be able to switch between a plan from that time and the present-day map. Certain names in the directory are more visible than others (written in a larger font or framed). This hierarchy will be represented on the map, giving priority the the most relevant results of the search.

Description

The project consists of extracting the available data from the Paris directory of businesses of 1897 and visualising it on a map of the city. The user will be able to switch between a plan from that time and the present-day map. Certain names in the directory are more visible than others (written in a larger font or framed). This hierarchy will be represented on the map, giving priority the the most relevant results of the search.

Visualisation

The search results will appear on both a map of 1895 Paris and on the present-day map. A visualisation of the actual page in the 1897 directory will be provided as well.
