Fine, Maarten. We will unify all data with decimal notation.
We are using a family of templates with some different fields from different sources. Will
it be helpfull to unify them in a more complex template? They are at

Hi,
I'm from the Catalan project, and recently we have been
developing lists of monuments (partially by bot, partially by
hand). Some of them include coordinates, which would allow us to
create maps of monuments They would useful for photographers.
But I wonder how to create them. I've got different approaches
in my mind, for example:
1. Creating a list of monuments with coordinates for Google
Maps, even though I don't know if it's possible. Maybe it
could also work with Google Earth.
2. The other way is creating maps with OpenStreetMap and,
with a program, add the different locations. You can see an
example at
http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usuari:Joancreus/Location_maps.
Unfortunately, this would require thousands of maps to achieve
a decent quality, and, depending on the number, many labels
couldn't be read.
Help would be appreciated from people who worked with the
project last year, in the Netherlands, or have other ideas.
Some pointers:

I found your lists of monuments at
http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categoria:Llistes_de_monuments and the
template at
http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantilla:Filera_BC_Sard
Looks good, just one thing now: Could you please use decimal
notation for the latitude and longitude?
Maarten
Thanks a lot,
Joan.
