The project purpose was to find and digitize material in the archives of the Estonian Literary Museum that were recorded from the area of the Lahemaa national park (Kuusalu, Kadrina and Haljala parishes) - a total of 989 heritage texts. The texts were typed, proofed and formed into a text corpus. In the second stage of the project, 472 heritage locations in Lahemaa were pinpointed on the landscape with GPS co-ordinates and 3342 photos were made on site. Several locations were mentioned in multiple texts and 73 locations mentioned could not be pinpointed. A MapInfo map layer was prepared for use for the national park administration. In the third stage of the project, the heritage sites are made public online, together with published texts, photos and their GPS co-ordinates.
