Luly Collection with geocoding
收藏资源简介:
This dataset contains latitudes and longitudes computationally generated from the descriptions of individual photographs in the Luly Collection. The 'Geometry location type' indicates the accuracy of the location. APPROXIMATE indicates a suburb (or larger) level of accuracy. ROOFTOP indicates an accuracy at the level of individual buildings. GEOMETRIC_CENTER is used for large or long locations such as parks or streets. The middle point of these kinds of locations are given. A zip file of the photographs has been included for convenience.The Luly Collection consists of 325 colour transparencies taken in Melbourne, Australia, from the 1950s until the 1970s. Evan Luly was born in Preston in 1895 and lived there until his death in 1985. During his professional career he worked for the Victorian Lands Department, and was an avid traveller and photographer. His daughter Lexie Luly (b. 1924), a teacher at Presbyterian Ladies College and friend of fellow-teacher Sibely May (1924-1994), donated this set of slides to Sibely’s son Professor Andrew May in the 1980s.Much of the collection consists of photos of houses in suburban Melbourne, photos of modern suburban churches and an eclectic range of other buildings and places (factories, parks, freeways, airports, public buildings). Highlights include images of many of the city’s Victorian masterpieces including the now demolished Federal Hotel in Spencer Street, as well as the Westgate Bridge and ICI House under construction.
本数据集包含基于卢利藏品(Luly Collection)中单张照片的描述信息计算生成的经纬度坐标。“地理位置类型(Geometry location type)”用于标注坐标的定位精度:其中“近似(APPROXIMATE)”表示精度为郊区及以上层级;“屋顶级(ROOFTOP)”表示精度可达单体建筑级别;“几何中心(GEOMETRIC_CENTER)”适用于公园、街道等大型或狭长区域,此时取该类区域的中点作为坐标。为便于使用,本数据集附带该批照片的压缩包。卢利藏品(Luly Collection)共计收录325张彩色透明胶片,拍摄于1950年代至1970年代的澳大利亚墨尔本。埃文·卢利(Evan Luly)于1895年出生于普雷斯顿,直至1985年逝世始终在此居住。其职业生涯曾供职于维多利亚州土地厅,同时也是一名热忱的旅行者与摄影师。他的女儿莱克西·卢利(Lexie Luly,1924年生)为长老会女子学院教师,亦是同事西布利·梅(Sibely May,1924-1994)的挚友,于1980年代将这套幻灯片捐赠给西布利·梅的儿子安德鲁·梅(Andrew May)教授。该藏品的主体内容为墨尔本郊区住宅、现代郊区教堂及其他各类风格迥异的建筑与场所的照片,涵盖工厂、公园、高速公路、机场、公共建筑等。馆藏亮点包含墨尔本诸多维多利亚时代建筑杰作的影像,例如现已拆除的斯宾塞街联邦酒店,以及在建中的西门大桥(Westgate Bridge)与帝国化学工业大厦(ICI House)。
