The Ratzer Map is one of the best images we have today of an American city in the years just before the American Revolution. It shows two views of a bustling and growing city set amid fields and forests. A large map provides a birds-eye view of lower Manhattan Island, eastern New Jersey, and—across the East River—the farms of “Brookland” (Brooklyn). At the bottom of the map, Bernard Ratzer included a view of busy New York harbor as seen from Governor’s Island. This panorama shows an incredible level of detail, including ships, buildings, and the coastline. It is so detailed that it even shows smoke rising from buildings in Manhattan.
The Ratzer Map gives us many clues about New Yorkers of 240 years ago. We see the development of city infrastructure, including sometimes twisting, sometimes grid-like roads. Clusters of buildings indicate where most people lived and worked. The names of farms and large estates tell us who owned land. The map shows important natural features, such as swamps, ponds, rivers and streams. It also shows us ways that New Yorkers changed the natural landscape by planting pastures, orchards, and gardens.

Greenwich Village was once a Lenape Village called “Sapokanik”, meaning Tobacco field or the Land of Tobacco growth.
In addition to tobacco farms, the area was also an active trading settlement and a canoe landing and docking area for Native Americans. Corresponding to the entire physical environment of Manhatta, the typography of Sapokanik was especially diverse and fertile, composed of mainly marshland closer to the southwestern estuaries, sand hills where Astor place is today,
and even oak hickory forests closer inland.
...
Although the Lenape traveled in small groups around Manhatta in response to the change of seasons and survival needs,
there was still a strong sense of community throughout the settlements. The Lenape identity was based on where individuals lived,
and kinship, and they held a spiritual relationship with their land.

//1660: Redraft of the Castello Plan New Amsterdam//
''Description''
[[Source Reference Guide|https://old.skyscraper.org/EXHIBITIONS/WALL_STREET/new_amsterdam.php]]
//From "The Rise of Wall Street" Exhibiton, The Skyscraper Museum//
</div>
<div align='center' style='font-size: 70%;'>
The Castello Plan is the most detailed map of New Amsterdam during the Dutch period, depicting the settlement in 1660.
Copied many times through history, the original by the cartographer Jacques Cortelyou was commissioned by the burgomasters to send to the directors of the Dutch West India Company in Amsterdam. Open spaces of orchards and gardens featured prominently,
as lot owners resisted building upon their property until land values rose. This posed a problem for the growing population of the settlement that had almost doubled to 1,500 inhabitants by the end of the 1650s. In response to the Cortelyou missive, the directors expressed discontent with the paucity of buildings in the small town, which they envisioned developing into a major port.
The map shows the settlement focused on the East River, with the large fort occupying the site that became Bowling Green,
at the head of Broadway. The main canal, today's Broad Street, has a shorter offshoot to the west along present-day Beaver Street.
At the eastern edge is Pearl Street, home to many handsome homes and warehouses of wealthy merchants.
At the north end of the settlement is a nascent Wall Street, demarked by the protective wall. Colonial inhabitants of New Amsterdam feared invasion from New Englanders, but a treaty between the global powers kept them safe until 1664,
when the British would capture the settlement and rename it New York.

A name is not merely a name. It is a narrative of who was there. A word from a language widely spoken by its inhabitants.
A place name has origins, whether or not we can accurately remember them. Some are passed down through legend. Some are recorded or mispelled. Some are noted on maps and appropriated.
Some names would one day disappear, and in that disappearance, all the stories of the lives held within.

A city rises above, descends below ground, and reaches across rivers, as taller buildings, underground tunnels, and bridges find
all hands on deck in a crowded working city. The intermingling of actvities defines the days.
Sounds of construction on the Brooklyn Bridge. Aromas and tastes from kitchens of distant countries, made neighbors.
Hushed prayers and bowed heads at different places of worship. All hoping -- through sighs and tears, stress and turmoil --
that work is attained for a living, food is provided for the family table.
That safety and health is assured through dark homes and alleys.
And that energy is given to the human mind, heart and body for yet another day.
And more ...

''In the Gilded Age''
//-People Met-//
Industrialists and Financiers, Engineers, Architects, Artisans, Culinarians, Tammany Hall,
Editors and Journalists of Newspaper Row
//-Places Visited-//
The Harbor and Piers. Central Park. Fifth Avenue and its Mansions. Grand Central Terminal,
The New York Public Library, and the Museums. Delmonico's. Ladies' Mile.
//-Events Experienced-//
Another very special meeting with Andrew Haswell Green as we witness the completion of his visions for Central Park,
the New York Public Library, the Bronx Zoo, the American Museum of Natural History, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The rarefied air of serene neighborhoods with private stables, carriage houses, mansions,
and gaslights-turned-electric lights for longer, safer evening strolls.
The luxury and status of exclusivity. A palette of diverse flavors in special nine-course meals. Carriage rides in Central Park.
The calming silence of the New York Public Library. The awe-inspiring vaulted ceilings of the Guastavinos.
The symphonic musical range in classical concerts. The travels and tours to lands of Ancient Civilizations.
And the ever raging battle among journalists to dominate public opinion. What's the real story of Tammany Hall?
And more ...

They represent a designated central location, given coordinates -- //x, y// -- of a point on a plane.
One that evolves in name, nature, and essence over time.
It is one of infinite portals of simultaneous departures and arrivals,

This project began with a question, "Where ...?"
It is a work-in-progress, a simple sketch, an experimental framework, a a time-travel narrative template conceptualized for education and entertainment.
The concept of heritage assets involves more than just the built environment of landmarks, monuments, or plaques. It encompasses hidden streets, disappearing churches, forgotten languages, dances, myths, lengends, belief systems, food heritage and more.
To gather remnants that encapsulate the essence of its existence.
And tasked to discern what to pursue and what to let go. Of Truths.
With millions of stories, the few selections offered by this project are just a pinch, a tip of the iceberg.
Historical GIS offers challenges and opportunities:
At this early stage, it is designed in Twine, although it is envisioned as a far more interactive AR/VR game for those more experienced in Unity or 3D Software and Game Mechanics, perhaps utilizing APIs on Relational Databases and Knowledge Graphs.
Inspirations for this have included: CryptoKitties, an element of blockchain was considered, where instead of a "cryptokitty", we have curated and crowdsourced heritage assets that could be "collected" as tradecards with fragmented tokens.

''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

"It’s important to point out that 95 percent of the woodlands in the Northeast were cut down. Combined with the massacres, the land theft, invasive crops, the decimation of crops, diseases that wiped out huge numbers of the people, it was an incredibly destructive time.
The Lenape people lost the majority of their population, lost the majority of their homes,
of everything that the people knew to be their environment. It was a holistic destructive mechanism."//

XYZ GRAPH DATA REFERENCE | DEFINITION > NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
[[Source Reference Guide: Wikipedia|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing]]
''Natural language processing (NLP)''
is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language,
in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.
The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them.
The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents
as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve
speech recognition, natural language understanding, and natural-language generation.

Now imagine an urban designer given the monumental task of designing a plan for the orderly growth of a young metropolis.
Home to one of the most diverse and industrious populations ever assembled, with thousands of newcomers arriving each year.
To complicate matters even further, image that the “blank canvas” onto which s/he must channel the city’s explosive growth is a hilly wooded island 13.4 miles long, ranging from 0.8 to 2.3 miles wide populated with dozens of independent farms, villages, and homesteads lacking any cohesion or unity.
In a nutshell, that was the task New York City’s Common Council (the City Council of its time) gave to statesman Gouverneur Morris, surveyor John Rutherfurd, and New York State Surveyor General Simeon De Witt in the spring of 1807. These three men were appointed “Commissioners of Streets and Roads” and would spend the next 4 years developing a plan that would meet the Common Council’s stated goal of “laying out Streets... in such a manner as to unite regularity and order with the public convenience and benefit and in particular to promote the health of the City...

The map, which takes its name from Col. Egbert L. Viele, the civil engineer who published it, appeared more than 130 years ago,
in 1874. But it remains the bible for many of the city's structural engineers, as current as the foundations being poured
across the island of Manhattan today.
...
In illuminating what the island looked like before it was filled in, paved over, dug up and forested with skyscrapers, the map provides information Manhattan builders find indispensable: where former underground streams are; where soil quality might be poor because of erosion; where the island's original shoreline ends and landfill begins. Despite its age, the map will most likely never be outdated or improved upon, in part because it would be nearly impossible to trace the island's streams today.
...
Viele (pronounced variously by engineers as VEE-el, VEE-lay and VEEL-ee) had served in the Civil War, and it was said that
the suffering he saw, caused by poor sanitation, motivated him to help sewer engineers by mapping the city's streams.

Before any subway tracks were buried beneath Manhattan, the city had a transportation system pieced together from privately run steam- and horse-drawn railroads (ground-level and elevated), ferry routes, continental and regional rail terminuses, and piers. This map was designed to provide merchants and shippers with all the information they would need to navigate the city’s complex transportation web, including fares (five cents seems to have been pretty standard) and important points of interest.

''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

''Natural language processing (NLP)''
is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language,
in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.
The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them.
The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents
as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve
speech recognition, natural language understanding, and natural-language generation.

“There were many words that you could not stand to hear and finally only the names of places had dignity.
Certain numbers were the same way and certain dates and these with the names of the places
were all you could say and have them mean anything.
Abstract words such as glory, honor, courage, or hallow were obscene beside the concrete names of villages,
the numbers of roads, the names of rivers, the numbers of regiments and the dates.”

''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

"The new government kicked off their own brand of reformations, and the process of change started with the renaming and reorganization of the previously Dutch-owned boroughs. Breuckelen was now “Brooklyn.” Heer Straat was now “Broadway.”
The fertile flat lands surrounding Brooklyn were now to be called “King's County.”
The patch of land north of King's County was now known as “Queens,” which fondly paid tribute to Queen Catherine."

"This is how space begins, with words only, signs traced on the blank page. To describe space: to name it, to trace it,

''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

...
Early in the war, on the shore of Long Island from an exertion of bodily labor in carrying the boat I commanded into a place of
safety & concealment, I recieved a dangerous & incurable rupture which has ever since been subject to the painful & inconvenient application of those modes of local support which are common in such cases—On the 7th of December 1782 while in the aforesaid service in a bloody engagement with two armed boats of the Enemy I received a wound by a ball thro. my breast2—With this wound I languished & was confined two years & a half under distressing chisurgical operations & a most forlorn hope of cure. The nature of these wounds together with the impairing of my constitution by the long continuance of my confinement have rendered me incapable of any labour that requires a considerable exertion & have reduced me to the melancholy condition of an invalid for life.
These are the facts on which I claimed a place on the invalid list of the United States..."//

Behind a symbol is an integrity of purpose manifested in an original choice of form, shape, color, and design of components.
When symbols from the Early Republic are subject to inaccurate interpretations across generations and centuries,

XYZ GRAPH DATA REFERENCE | DEFINITION > NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
[[Source Reference Guide: Wikipedia|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing]]
''Natural language processing (NLP)''
is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language,
in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.
The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them.
The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents
as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve
speech recognition, natural language understanding, and natural-language generation.

''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

XYZ GRAPH DATA REFERENCE | DEFINITION > NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
[[Source Reference Guide: Wikipedia|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing]]
''Natural language processing (NLP)''
is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language,
in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.
The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them.
The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents
as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve
speech recognition, natural language understanding, and natural-language generation.

Journal of Information, Communication and Ethics in Society (10 June 2020)
[[Source Reference Guide|https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/JICES-12-2019-0138/full/html]]
''Transparency:''
Monitor transparency of the AI technology itself along with organisations developing and using it.
''Justice and Fairness:''
Ensure that data being used by AI is not unfair, or contains errors and inaccuracies that will corrupt AI response and decisions.
Identify impacts on different aspects of society. Design to promote human welfare, rather than endanger it.
While AI developers may have their own values, they should not develop algorithms with historically unfair prejudices.
''Non-maleficence:''
Do no harm and ensure no harm comes to citizens, through security and safety of the AI.
Take precautionary and remedial steps if harm occurs.
Encourage a form of “algorithmic accountability” and should exercise caution when developing AI that may have negative impacts.
''Responsibility + Privacy:''
Ensure clear and concise allocation of responsibilities within the organisation using AI.
Create potential scenarios and ways to deal with harms when they occur.
Implement methods to reverse, remedy and allow fair redress, in instances where harms have occurred.
''Beneficence:''
Promote the flourishing of individual well-being, ensuring people receive benefits from AI use.
Promote peace and the social and common good.
''Freedom and Autonomy:''
Acknowledge, identify and ameliorate circumstances where AI may create harm against human freedoms
through tracking (freedom of movement), censorship (freedom of expression) or surveillance (freedom of association).
''Trust + Sustainability:''
Prove AI organizations are trustworthy and technologies reliable.
Ensure that they are environmentally sustainable.
''Dignity + Solidarity:''
Develop and use AI in a way that protects humans'
"physical and mental integrity, personal and cultural sense of identity, and satisfaction of their essential needs”.
Support rich and meaningful social interaction, both professionally and in private life.

...
I am wondering if many of my readers have not stood before a masterpiece of lovely sculpture or a remarkable painting of a young girl,
her very abandonment of draperies accentuating rather than diminishing her modesty and purity, and asked themselves the question,
'Where is she now, this model who has been so beautiful? ... What has been her reward?
Is she happy and prosperous, or is she sad and forlorn, her beauty gone, leaving only memories in its wake?'//"

XYZ GRAPH DATA REFERENCE | DEFINITION > NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
[[Source Reference Guide: Wikipedia|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing]]
''Natural language processing (NLP)''
is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language,
in particular how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.
The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them.
The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents
as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
Challenges in natural language processing frequently involve
speech recognition, natural language understanding, and natural-language generation.

“Until the first blow fell, no one was convinced that Penn Station really would be demolished, or that New York would permit this monumental act of vandalism against one of the largest and finest landmarks of its age of Roman elegance. Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves. Even when we had Penn Station, we couldn’t afford to keep it clean. We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed.”
