Abstract
In the proposed article the authors presents an interactive map of microtoponyms of the village of Velyki Didushychi, Stryi district, Lviv region, created in Google Maps application, which serves as a platform not only for displaying cartographic information, but also as a source of various linguistic information about microtoponyms. On the example of one settlement, the step-by-step process of creating a map is traced: searching in the «My Maps» section on Google Drive for a map of the village, naming, filling with information about the settlement in the «Description» section, putting the onym on the map, presenting various linguistic information about the microtoponym (features of local pronunciation, grammatical information, type of named object, type of structure, method of formation, semantics of the motivational stem, etc.). The authors emphasises the possibilities of using interactive maps for various research needs: division into semantic groups, selection of structural types, methods of creation, formation of areas of microtoponyms, which is demonstrated by examples. Attention is focused on the key definitions of the research (interactive map, microtoponym), supplementing the created interactive map with new names and extra-linguistic information (photos, videos, legends, stories), which broadens the perception of the name and contributes to the interest of a much larger number of people, as well as on the possibilities the use of such an information platform in the educational process of philological specialties during the study of dialectology, microtoponymy, linguistic and cultural studies (in particular in the of distant or mixed learning), in the compilation of local history guides, and in learning the history of one’s native village.
