In this stop-motion .gif GoodLander Molly Burhans evolves friar and geographer Ignazio Danti's fresco map, created in the 1580s in the Vatican's Galleria della Carte Geografiche, into a 3D digital version created in ArcGIS Pro, and then floods it with increased sea level. Cartography practices spanning centuries are merged into one short .gif.
The Catholic Community Spatial Data Infrastructure would benefit many Catholic organizations working in areas beyond environmental protection and community development. For example, it could create the infrastructure needed to digitize and correlate various maps from the Vatican’s museums and archives with maps we make of the modern Church.
