Scots Placenames Map

This is project started as part of CTC21: Put Your City on the Map, which ran Saturday 28th Nov 2020 and Sunday 29th Nov 2020.

Translating place names into Scots in the OSM - specifically Doric, for the north-east region, but expandable into other dialects of the Scots language for other regionalities.

There is also a view to having a Gaelic language overlay to show and contrast the placenames in Scotland's three national languages.
