<b>OpenHistoricalMap</b> (abbreviated as <b>OHM</b>) is a companion project of [[OpenStreetMap]] that applies [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] principles to making a {{tag|map}} of the {{tag|history}} of the {{tag|Earth|world}}. An interactive map on the homepage includes a slider for travelling backward and forward in time. Anyone can edit the map to document a shop, building, railway, or country – even one that no longer exists. Sources can include field observation like on OpenStreetMap, published books and newspapers like on Wikipedia, and old maps like on the [[AARoads Wiki]]. A section of the [[OpenStreetMap Wiki]] is dedicated to documenting OpenHistoricalMap. | |||
