Statewide Mapping Resources

  • State GIS with Aerial Imagery
    • Create a bookmarklet with the following code to link from your position in WME to the same position in above NY Map. You need to have an active chrome browser window open to WME for this to work.
      javascript:(function(){var center_lonlat=new OpenLayers.LonLat(Waze.map.center.lon,Waze.map.center.lat);center_lonlat.transform(new OpenLayers.Projection('EPSG:900913'),new OpenLayers.Projection('EPSG:4326'));window.open('http://orthos.dhses.ny.gov/?lat='+center_lonlat.lat+'&long='+center_lonlat.lon+'&zoom='+((Waze.map.zoom)+12),'NYSOrthos');})()

Mapping Resources for Cities

  • New York City (all 5 boroughs) NYCityMap and Traffic Advisories
  • Nexar Live Map - Provides real time dash cam images that can be useful in identifying things like speed limits and turn restrictions. This is currently only available in New York City.

Mapping Resources by County

Geometry Boundary Files

These files may be used with scripts to view in WME, or other tools such as Google Earth.

KML

WKT

These can be imported to the UR-MP Tracking script to setup custom areas. To use for the URMPT script, click a link below, then save the file. You can then import this file directly as a custom area in the WKT field.


Regions for use in UR-MP only.

Approximate county boundaries used to create these regions - Do NOT use this file for determining county / township borders!
