Research Resources

From Moscowiki

There are many places to look for information about Moscow. The list below is not complete and should be added to as Moscowiki members happen upon useful pieces of information. Be as specific as possible when highlighting a research vector.

[edit] Search Engines

Large and pervasive search engines, such as Google and Google Groups, provide a good way to find anecdotal information and history from a wide range of sources. Because the material can be submitted by anyone (much like Moscowiki!), the information needs to be verified as much as possible before being accepted. When possible try and find at least two sources for a particular piece of information.

[edit] GPS Coordinate help

Sometimes it can be useful to use GPS coordinates to specify an exact location or find the distance between two locations. Some articles list their coordinates.
