Data from the Detective Department at the Gothenburg police, from late 1800s to early 1900s.

The Detective Department project is based on texts from the Gothenburg police, from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. These texts have been transcribed manually. Work is in progress at Språkbanken to further develop this data. So far, the texts are not available here, but they can be found at Riksarkivet. One part of our project consists of finding on a map the places mentioned in the texts. This address data is available here, in two files. One file contains geographical coordinates, the other coordinates in the map file we have used.
