Webinar on crowdsourcing platforms for historic images – Topothek, Smapshot, Civil War Photo Sleuth, Historypin & Ajapaik

There are several platforms/apps dedicated to enriching the metadata of historic images – geotagging pictures, identifying persons, rephotography of historic images etc.

Ajapaik is celebrating its 10th anniversary on February 27 and on that occasion a webinar brings together 5 such platforms – Topothek, Smapshot, Civil War Photo Sleuth, Historypin and Ajapaik.

The presentations start at full hour from 14 onwards with max 40 minutes for presentations, then Q&A and then a small break before next session. Registration here.
