| Description | This document records the approach to the Devon Tithe Mapping Polygonisation Project, part of the Tithe Maps Online strategy. The document describes the methodology taken and steps used to validate the data. The aim of the project was to capture the tithe map boundaries as GIS polygons from the input raster mosaic; merge the input tithe apportionment spreadsheets; validate and create consistent entries for four of the tithe apportionment fields; match the tithe apportionment records to the GIS polygons using the plot number and parish. |
