The evolution of infrastructure networks such as roads and streets are of utmost importance to understand the evolution of urban systems. However, datasets describing these spatial objects are rare and sparse. The database presented here represents the road network at the french national level described in the historical map of Cassini in the 18th century. The digitization of this historical map is based on a collaborative methodology that we describe in detail. This dataset can be used for a variety of interdisciplinary studies, covering multiple spatial resolutions and ranging from history, geography, urban economics to network science.
基础设施网络（如道路和街道）的演变对于理解城市系统的演变至关重要。然而，描述这些空间对象的数据集却很少且稀疏。本数据库呈现了 18 世纪卡塞尼历史地图中所描述的法国国家级道路网络。该历史地图的数字化采用了我们详细描述的合作方法。该数据集可用于各种跨学科研究，涵盖多个空间分辨率，从历史、地理、城市经济学到网络科学等领域。
