In Dutch it's very likely that the spelling 'progressed' in the meantime.

How does one search for a specific map of a river in the region of interest?

[OSM-talk-be] archives - streams and rivers

2020-04-25 Thread Pierre Parmentier
Hello,

The Belgian State Archives have put the following archives online:
'Ministère de l'Intérieur. Plans généraux des cours d'eau non navigables ni
flottables' (1877-1890).

You can find them via Cartesius.be. They can be useful for
finding/veryfying the correct names of small streams and rivers. But be
careful: it appears that in some cases the actual current names (hydronyms)
are slightly different from what they were at the end of the nineteenth
century! These maps cover the entire Belgian territory they said but I did
not check it really ;-)

Two samples:
