[Freegis-list] New MapServer Application

[Alexander Pucher]

Dear Freegis-list members,

The Department of Geography and Regional Research of the University of
Vienna, Austria is proud to present their latest MapServer project,
which was launched yesterday evening under the title

"Reason for eviction - non-Ayrian"  (http://www.ns-verbrechen.at)

The contents of this website are primarily based on the research and
publication work carried out by Herbert Exenberger, Johann Koss and
Brigitte Ungar-Klein, namely the book "Reason for eviction - non-Ayrian.
The eviction of Jewish tenants from council flats in Vienna in 1938 and
1939. " published by Picus The texts taken from a touring exhibition of
the same name, shown in various parts of Vienna, aiming to increase
sensitivity for the subject of Aryanisation, were adapted for the
Internet. The data collected for this site refer to Jewish men and women
who lost their lives during the NS regime - be it that they were
deported and murdered in a concentration camp, or that they died in
Vienna or elsewhere. Survivors were not included in the data for reason
of data privacy. The data mainly rely on sources from the documentation
archive of the Austrian Resistance, i.e. "the name register of Austrian
holocaust victims".


The system is based on UMN MapServer and PostGIS, offering a complete 
german and english interface.

Have fun!!

Regards
alex
