Just a little over a year ago I started working on a cemetery mapping concept. The data was based on the cemetery categories located here at WikiTree; however, the data connection was slow and clunky, the information being pulled had some serious data issues, and the base code I was playing with had some serious limitations. Eventually I just scrapped/abandoned the project.
I started looking into this again recently on the request of a few members, and I am happy to say that a lot of the previous errors are no longer a major hurdle thanks to the WikiTree community who have been helping to sanitize our cemetery data.
Using data that Aleš is collecting based on the CategoryInfoBox Cemetery template, we also have a stable connection to the information we need that is frequently updated.
Without further ado, I would like to present a new app where you can now navigate the globe to find our documented cemeteries:
WikiTree Cemetery Maps
When selecting a cemetery on the map, you will be presented with a popup box that contains the Cemetery Name formatted as a link to the applicable cemetery category, as well as a number of profiles contained within the category (in parens).
If you have any ideas for future improvement, or notice any bugs, please let me know here.
Hope you enjoy :)
