Abstract
This paper discusses the goals, methodology and experience gained in the project ‘Integration and Segregation in Cityspace: The History of the Holocaust in Prague Through a Web Application’, funded by the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic. Using a mobile application, the project aims to overlay the current cityscape with extensive datasets on the Holocaust victims who were living in Prague before their deportation. By giving insights into working with the data, and by presenting the digitized material used and the technical development of the web application, the paper also hopes to contribute to future approaches for archival and educational GIS-based applications. Following an introduction to the spatial history of Jews in Prague, the article analyses the challenges at the crossroads of documentation and digitization, technology and user interface, as well as user interaction with data.
