Nostalgeo aims to enhance public access to historical heritage through old postcards and by creating a 'street view of the past' in Antwerp. The project involves collaboration among experts in bio-engineering, geo-ICT, and computer sciences to develop tools for comparing historical maps and postcards. It seeks to engage the public by providing a platform for adding and commenting on postcards, generating walking tours based on historical narratives.
