The latter looks up the location names in a gazetteer and resolves ambiguities to suggest the most likely interpretation (i.e. latitude/longitude, country and type) for each location given its context in the text being processed. In this section, we report on adjustments made to the Edinburgh Geoparser for Trading Consequences, GAP and DEEP, three research projects all processing historical text of different kinds. In the experiments presented next we evaluate the georesolution step of the Edinburgh Geoparser for adjustments we made to its feature set specifically gold standard dataset containing manually annotated location mentions georeferenced to GeoNames. (3) The DEEP Project: Georeferencing Historical English Place-names use we have made of the Edinburgh Geoparser to assign georeferences to DEEP place-names A version of the Geoparser adapted to use DEEP is accessible in Unlock Text. ./cache/work_v2e2rurnzncldp2ftmabytyxjy.pdf ./txt/work_v2e2rurnzncldp2ftmabytyxjy.txt
