Documentary safeguard
Geography should clarify the archive, not invent precision.
Markers provide approximate city or regional orientation. They do not identify camera positions or imply a travel order. Places with photographic material are distinguished from places with background reading only; more photographs and stories can be connected as their locations are verified.
