    Fire plan would cut 2.4 million New Jersey Pinelands trees

    It actually got pretty bad around here for awhile "...in 2008, SPB crossed the Egg Harbor River for the first time and entered the pine forests of Atlantic County, and continues to move north and west. In 2010, New Jersey experienced the warmest growing season on record (average temperature...

    Missing Woman

    Yeah, weird. But these reports say the same thing, so it evidently did come from the state police. https://patch.com/new-jersey/cinnaminson/missing-burlington-co-womans-car-found-state-forest-police https://www.nydailynews.com/2024/05/23/missing-new-jersey-woman-danielle-lopez-car-state-forest/

    "The Devil in the Forest"

    Coming up at 6:00 PM on the Discovery Channel. Saw this awhile ago and it's a classic! :D IIRC, towards the end they talked with someone who had a pretty interesting theory about what the original Jersey Devil might have been.

    Closed Again

    Vermont: 9,200 square miles, population: 674,000 New Jersey: 7,200 square miles, population: 9,262,000 Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating for closures... but clearly, Vermont ain't New Jersey! :D

    Working with Waypoints and Maps

    Yes, I use six digits for internal purposes. I only reduced it to four in the title bar because the long numbers don't fit on small screens.

    Geomagnetic Storm

    Perhaps related to your 20 year old technology? I was using the GPS on my iPhone at 1:30 and didn't have any problems. :D

    Geomagnetic Storm

    A short old thread about the Northern Lights here. As I mentioned, saw them a couple times at our place in NY but that was about 250 miles North of the Pines. Very cool, ghostly effect. https://forums.njpinebarrens.com/threads/northern-lights.6582/ Hopefully there won't be any other effects...

    Police activity in Weymouth Twp?

    Thanks, that makes sense (although it's impossible to be more than a few hundred feet from a road or a house in that area).

    Police activity in Weymouth Twp?

    Was out a couple hours ago and saw three state police cars along the road near the Weymouth school, with the officers just sitting like they were waiting for someone to appear (driving down the road? or out of the woods?), no lights, sirens or anything. Also noticed a helicopter overhead which...

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    I bought my home on Atsion Rd for around $240,000 in 2002, solid it in 2006 for about $300,000. Just looked at your Zillow link, it's not on the market now but estimated value is around $440,000. Not really sure how I feel about that, was actually surprised that it wasn't higher.

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    600,000 bucks for a dream home sandwiched between the parkway and airport! :clint:

    Nationwide Public Lands Interactive Map

    Spent awhile digging through these. For the time being, I'm classifying 326,000 of the items in the Northeast US dataset as public openspace. So, that suggests about 2/3 of the properties in this dataset are not actually open to the general public. If you just go to the link in the first post...

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    This must be it. Again, I can't read without a subscription but before it blocked me, it looked like exactly what you described. Something completely different from the other project, a housing development by D R Horton. This parcel is about the right size (174 acres) but there's no data for it...

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    That would be here? Definitely not the same thing as the articles I posted. Did not find anything about this with a quick search https://boydsmaps.com/pines/#14/39.429906/-74.551868/hybrid/0/0/

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    OK, answering some of my own questions... That first article says the 400 acre development is in "the northwest corner of Atlantic City International Airport". That doesn't sound like something that would involve clearing trees by the parkway, I wouldn't think you could even see it from the...

    Land clearing near AC international airport

    Apparently, this? Doesn't sound like a "housing development", more along the lines of commercial/industrial although it does say "mixed use". https://www.roi-nj.com/2023/10/03/real_estate/400-acre-development-planned-for-corner-of-a-c-airport/...

    Nationwide Public Lands Interactive Map

    Note: I deleted three off-topic posts about AC International Airport from this thread and put them into a new thread in the Land Use Issues forum here. ______________________________ I just randomly clicked on a couple properties to use as an example of what's in the database. I used examples...

    Time Saver

    Thanks! Glad that you're making use of the advanced features! Something else that might be useful - if you save your waypoints in the boydsmaps format, you will just get a text file but it can be imported directly into Excel with just a few clicks. This offers a lot of other possibilities. Any...
