本文描述了用地理参考标注美国内战历史语料库的过程。参考注释以两种不同的文本比例给出：单个地名和文件。这是fi在文档级地理位置发布的第一个此类语料库，它有10,000多个消除歧义的TO-PYYM，是之前任何地名语料库的两倍。我们概述了创建这样一个语料库的许多挑战和考虑因素，我们评估了基线和基准地名解析，并记录了有关它的地理位置系统。语料库的各个方面为任务的适当注释程序提出了几点建议。
This paper describes the process of annotating a historical US civil war corpus with geographic reference. Reference annotations are given at two different textual scales: individual place names and documents. This is the first published corpus of its kind in document-level geolocation, and it has over 10,000 disambiguated to-ponyms, double the amount of any prior toponym corpus. We outline many challenges and considerations in creating such a corpus, and we evaluate baseline and benchmark toponym resolution and document geolocation systems on it. Aspects of the corpus suggest several recommendations for proper annotation procedure for the tasks.
