Sorry to say, but the time to say farewell to lidar.boydsmaps.com has come. The site will shut down permanently this Thursday. But I will investigate adding some similar capabilities to the boydsmaps app in the next few months. Could be awhile before anything like this is implemented however...

Currently planning to make the transition sometime this Thursday, this could create some DNS issues opening old links for a few hours until the changes propogate. Will also be shutting down lidar.boydsmaps.com at the same time.

Just finished a big update to the app, the main attraction is a detailed help file for both the mobile and desktop versions. Definitely a version 1.0 document that could use more work, but I hope it will answer most of your questions. A number of bugs have been corrected, several things could...

FWIW, this is the property: https://boydsmaps.com/#17.00/39.912347/-74.894162/parcels2019/0.00/0.00

Just had a look at this, didn't think I recognized the name - the 2020 NJDEP dataset calls it "Evesham Twp Openspace", the map on their own website calls it "Evesham Planning Incentive". Anyway, I think this is it https://boydsmaps.com/#16.00/39.844866/-74.904397/pines2020/0.00/0.00 LIDAR is...

Bad news if you host a WordPress site at GoDaddy... :eek: "Anything up to 1.2 million users have seen their email address and customer number exposed, as well as admin passwords for both WordPress sites hosted on the platform, plus passwords for sFTPs, databases and SSL private keys."...

Cool - thanks Bob. I think that project would require an on-the-ground knowledge of the property however. One of these days I would like to take on some mapping projects, but I have too much work remaining on my site for now. That looks like the kind of job for some local person with a GPS and...

I calculated the acreage on my map from the parcel geometry, so it probably doesn't match the real acreage in the deed.

There's Block 1702, Lot 27 (172 acres) which appears to be the main portion of if, based on the little map in the article. But the article seems to show the two smaller lots South of that, and if you combine them then it's a lot more than the 202 acres mentioned in the article...

FWIW, the Evert Preserve is here: https://boydsmaps.com/#14.00/39.929758/-74.662633/pines2020/0.00/0.00

BTW, if you get the GLO, here are a couple helpful (but not required) accessories. the friction mount is a small rubber mat with a pocket the holds the GPS. Works well on your vehicle's dashboard (but on a hot sunny day, make sure the dash doesn't get too hot for the GPS)...

Android doesn't have native support for bluetooth GPS (kind of surprising, after all this time IMO). However, there's a very clever little hack that works perfectly. Android has a test mode where the built-in GPS is disabled and you can manually enter a "mock location". So, there's a little free...

:D https://boydsmaps.com/#17.00/39.361886/-75.371381/lidar2021bw/0.00/0.00 The 1970 and 1977 wetlands aerials are also interesting https://boydsmaps.com/#17.00/39.361886/-75.371381/njgin1970/0.00/0.00 https://boydsmaps.com/#17.00/39.361886/-75.371381/njgin1977/0.00/0.00

At this point, looks like that big storm won't have much effect on us. Virtually no rain in the forecast and 30mph winds on Tuesday are the only thing "stormy" in the forecast. Gonna have some cold nights though. Of course, things could certainly change... Today: Mostly cloudy, with a high near...

I've mentioned this elsewhere, but if anyone is concerned about GPS accuracy you might consider a bluetooth receiver such as the Garmin GLO2. I wrote a review and did a lot of testing. I felt it was more accurate than my both my GPSMap 60csx and Montana 600. Garmin markets this for private...
