ABSTRACT

We describe and share reconstructed data of the historical railway network of Galicia and Austrian Silesia – two regions of the Habsburg Empire that covered more than 80 000 km² that are currently divided among Czechia, Poland and Ukraine. The network dataset includes the times of railway appearance and of the most dynamic development until 1914, which marked the outbreak of the First World War. Most of the lines were reconstructed based on OpenStreetMap data, and the lines, which were closed down between 1914 and 2019 and are no longer available in spatial datasets, were reconstructed based on high-resolution satellite imagery and historical maps. Altogether, the network dataset covers nearly 5000 km on 127 lines. The data are accompanied by a set of attributes, i.e. the year of construction, length, starting point, finish point, and type (normal, narrow-gauge, etc.), and are available for download in the shp format.

摘要

我们描述并共享加利西亚和奥地利西里西亚的历史铁路网的重建数据-哈布斯堡帝国的两个地区，覆盖了8万多公里²目前分为捷克，波兰和乌克兰。网络数据集包括1914年铁路出现和最活跃的发展时期，这标志着第一次世界大战的爆发。大部分线路是根据OpenStreetMap数据重建的，而这些线路是根据高分辨率卫星图像和历史地图重建的，这些线路在1914年至2019年之间关闭，并且在空间数据集中不再可用。网络数据集总共覆盖了127条线上的近5000公里。数据附带一组属性，即构造年份，长度，起点，终点和类型（正常，窄轨等），并且可以shp格式下载。
