Routed of Sefarad, a new GIS-based, Google-sponsored website was announced today by Digital Humanities: http://www.redjuderias.org/google/?l=en.
>From the site: "The footprints of the Jewish community in Spain span more than >a thousand years. Explore this heritage in the Network's cities and make your >own searches in our illustrated interactive timeline. Thanks to the technology >provided by Google, the visitor can navigate through the layers of >informations displayed in maps and timelines about the history, culture and >heritage of the Jews in Spain in a single website. Routes of Sefarad offers an >interactive experience about Spain's rich Sephardic heritage." It seems to be a project of the European Association for the Preservation and Promotion of Jewish Culture and Heritage (AEPJ). And there's an app for it, too! :) -- see http://www.jewisheritage.org/jh/erjh.php?lang=1.
