Boston streets mapping directory data "Boston Streets combines three heavily used resources in historical research libraries; photographs, maps, and city directories. Traditional city directories have been converted from paper resources to full-text searchable digital documents. As of August 2004, historic images of Boston from both The Bostonian Society (about 3000 images) and Tufts University (400 images) were scanned for use with the Boston Streets project. Overview maps and atlases of Boston ranging from 1844 to 1950 make up the bulk of the geographic resources included in the project. Orthographic images of modern day boston, and vector data from the boston redevelopment authority and MassGIS are use to ground the Boston in its modern context. The layering of historic maps and datasets of address points collected from those maps, show visually the changes in Boston's physical landscape as time progresses." |

Distribution maps of fishes in California "The following list of fish species and their reported distributional ranges in California were compiled by Dr. Peter Moyle and his graduate student Paul Randall of the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Conservation Biology at UC Davis for the Nature Conservancy as part of their Hexagon Project. Fish were mapped at the species level; subspecies were grouped into their respective species level. Present rather than historical distributions were mapped. ... The fish distribution data were graphically displayed on paper maps which were then used to create larger polygons showing species distributions at either the "probable" or "possible" levels of confidence. These polygons were initially drawn on paper maps (roughly 11 in. x 17 in.) which included locations of fish occurrences from all digital databases possessed, and GIS layers for hydrology (1:500,000 scale) and the state boundary (1:100,000 scale). The boundaries of the fish range polygons were drawn on paper by Professor Peter Moyle and then digitized on the computer screen by Paul Randall using ARC/INFO GIS software. The resultant polygons are estimated to be accurate at a scale of roughly 1:1,000,000." |

National atlas of the United States "The National Atlas of the United States of America will include four distinct products. In addition to having high-quality, small-scale maps, the atlas will include authoritative digital national geospatial and geostatistical data sets. Examples of geospatial data include soils, boundaries, volcanoes, and principal aquifers. Crime patterns, population distribution, and incidence of disease are examples of geostatistical data. This information is tied to specific geographic areas and is categorized and indexed using different methods, such as county, State, and zip code boundaries or geographic coordinates like latitude and longitude. These data will be collected and integrated to a consistent set of standards to support analysis. The atlas will also include easy-to use software for data display, query, and custom information and map making. The product will include hot links to atlas sites on the WWW. More up-to-date, real-time, and regional data will be served by means of the WWW. Descriptive information, marketing products and software programs will also be delivered via the WWW"--About the Atlas screen |

The site is quite user-friendly, and the main maps contained on the site include thematic maps (at the county and state level) and interactive mapping (which contains tutorial exercises that introduce the basic concepts involved in geographic information systems). For users interested in utilizing the full capabilities of the site, the Metro Web GIS service area of the site allows users to look at the main metropolitan regions in the state, and to customize the themes (such as churches, golf courses, and hospitals) to their preferences. Another helpful feature of the Metro Web service is that as users zoom into any particular locale, the topographic maps change to aerial photograph overlays. For those seeking a wealth of information, spatial and otherwise, about the state of Tennessee, this Web site will be much appreciated.
