Abstract: The application and integration of historical cartographic data in GIS has received much recent attention. This chapter discusses the current status of the use of such data in the larger GIS environment, and presents three case studies where such data are being used in France, Central Africa, and North Carolina. A new technique for georegistration of historical maps is presented. A brief discussion of the issues involved in incorporating such data is discussed, along with some consideration of future directions.
