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

County Route Inventories

These are the current inventories of county routes from the NYS Highway Data Services Repository. Note that the basemaps used by the state may be outdated and show state and county routes that are no longer under their jurisdiction (be it sections or entire routes) - these inventories should be the primary reference. County routes do not exist in the 5 boroughs of New York City.

Albany Franklin Onondaga Steuben
Allegany Fulton Ontario Suffolk
Broome Genesee Orange Sullivan
Cattaraugus Greene Orleans Tioga
Cayuga Hamilton Oswego Tompkins
Chautauqua Herkimer Otsego Ulster
Chemung Jefferson Putnam Warren
Chenango Lewis Rensselaer Washington
Clinton Livingston Rockland Wayne
Columbia Madison St. Lawrence Westchester
Cortland Monroe Saratoga Wyoming
Delaware Montgomery Schenectady Yates

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!
