The database with the locations of the sundials in Germany and Switzerland is
available online. However, until a printed version is published, you need to to
make a down payment on this book in order to gain access to the online database
at http://gnomonica.de
A description on how to get access is given here (in German only):

From a Google translation of the newspaper text it seems that about 13,000
sundials are registered in Germany.
Looking at Sundial Atlas I can only find 1,488 registered dials.
What a pity that so many sundials are only in a national restricted archive
that cannot be accessed asaik by all the dialists in the world !
