A joint project of the Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters and Google has been presented at the headquarters of Centro Sefarad-Israel in Madrid on December 19th 2012

The project, which is available in Spanish and English at www.redjuderias.org, aims at promoting on an international level the Jewish heritage of the member cities of the Red de Juderías de España (Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters)by means of all the possibilities offered by the new technologies.
Internet users all around the world can now visit and make virtual tours through the 24 cities of the Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters, stroll through their streets, discover outstanding heritage sites and cultural elements, and get to know the history behind all these, from one and the same platform.The Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters has incorporated the Google Maps technology, geo-positioning the different places of interest and providing them with their respective historical documentation, which is displayed once the user clicks on one of the signalled places on the map. Besides, users can visualise any of these points on street level thanks to Street View.
Furthermore there is an option enabling users to find all this information by means of a comprehensive search panel, which divides the different sites according to their category and type, their geographic region or chronological period.
The technology supplied by Google enables the organisation of all these contents through maps and chronograms with different levels of information. There is a total of 523 sites, 910 chronological entries, 1.667 images, 67 informative texts and 138 comments in lexical voices, which users can access through a unique website which stores information spanning from the 3rd century till today.
