WorldChanging Profiles Stanford's Spatial History Project, Mannahatta Project

WorldChanging is one of the great blogs (I was told to read it everyday and I do) and this week profiles two projects relevant to geospatial:

Stanford's Spatial History Project "is bringing together approaches from history and geography, employing GIS and other technologies to find new ways of understanding how the past unfolded in different places."

The Mannahatta Project (I ran into this at the New York State Geospatial Summit) uses "spatial history tools to mentally strip back the years and imagine Manhattan before the arrival of Europeans."
