Problem doboru jednostek odniesienia przestrzennego w integracji danych z drugiej połowy XIX i początku XX w. z terenów Galicji i Śląska Austriackiego
Problem of selection of territorial units in the integration of data from the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century for Galicia and Austrian Silesia

Summary/Abstract: To map and analyze spatial historical data, accurate territorial units are needed. Changes of administrative boundaries could cause a problem for linked maps to tabular socio-economic census data. A cadastral commune can be the appropriate spatial level for mass published census data. It allows to become independent from later changes of administrative units and it could be a good starting point to link similar data for higher level of administrative hierarchy. The article presentsvarious aspects of the selection of administrative units for the mid-nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century for Galicia and Austrian Silesia.
