About Our Platform
Preserving cemetery data through community contributions and geospatial mapping
Our Mission
The Cemetery Geospatial Platform aims to preserve historical cemetery data through a community-driven approach. We believe that by creating a comprehensive, accessible database of interment locations, we can help families connect with their history, assist researchers in historical and genealogical studies, and support cemetery management organizations in their preservation efforts.
Our platform combines powerful geospatial technology with a user-friendly interface to create a collaborative environment where individuals and organizations can contribute to and benefit from this growing database.
How It Works
Our platform uses ArcGIS technology to map and store precise location data for cemetery plots and interment sites. Users can:
- Search for interment records using names, dates, or locations
- View detailed information about individual graves and memorials
- Contribute new records with precise geospatial coordinates
- Add photographs and additional information to existing records
- Create accounts to track contributions and save searches
Who Can Participate
Our platform welcomes contributions from:
Individual Contributors
Anyone interested in cemetery preservation, genealogy, or local history can create an account to add records, photos, and information.
Organizations
Cemetery associations, historical societies, and municipal governments can create organizational accounts to manage and contribute official records.
Our Team
The Cemetery Geospatial Platform was created by a dedicated team of developers, historians, and genealogists who share a passion for preserving cemetery records and making them accessible to everyone.
