    Incoming: Big boydsmaps update

    Finishing this up right now. Need to tweak the code a bit, do some more testing, but will probaby be putting the new version online later today. This could cause cache issues, so "heads up". Clearing your browser cache should fix these issues, here's an article with instructions for doing this...

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    I had a look at the options and am rather lost because I haven't worked with styles on Xenforo sites before. I checked the colors in your screenshot, but don't even see them defined in the current site style. So this is gonna be a question for Ben (would be anyway, since it's about the design of...

    Inventory of Active and Abandoned Sand and Gravel Mining Operations in NJ

    Cool! :cool: This is the dataset I use on my maps (in addition to others that I took directly from old topo maps) https://njogis-newjersey.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/db9be6bd7db64b2f8be544c26779620d_3/about I have attached a PDF file that's included in that download which might be of interest

    HERE maps - possible changes coming

    Yeah, it should all be handled automatically in the near future. Was already finishing up a big update and one feature is a 2d/3d preference. That will default to 2d, so you won't normally see the 3d maps - but they'll be accessible by just clicking the compass and switching to 3d mode. And if...

    Controlled burns 2024

    Thought I'd start a new thread for controlled burning this season since there doesn't seem to already be one... Around 7:30 this morning here in Peaslee. Must have lit it yesterday because there was nobody around. They have been burning that whole area between Main and Taylor Avenues for almost...

    HERE maps - possible changes coming

    Ugh, it's gonna be harder to get away from proprietary maps than I thought. I removed all mapbox data from boydsmaps and am only using their API to display the 3d maps that I host myself. Turns out, everytime somebody loads one of these maps, it creates a billable event just because the Mapbox...

    Old Sandstone Mine on the 1870 Vermeule Topo Map

    Yeah, I'm sure he just missed it when he downloaded the maps and created the web page. The source for these maps is here and this is number 85.

    Old Sandstone Mine on the 1870 Vermeule Topo Map

    Meant to comment on this earlier... Digital mapping has evolved into something that nobody could have imagined back in 1985, let alone 1885. These maps were intended to be looked at individually, not stitched together into a seamless map on a computer screen. I arbitrarily chose the dates shown...

    Be careful out there...

    Seriously, why would you want to revive this necro thread?

    Blue dotted line

    What LIDAR maps? What blue dotted lines? Do you mean something like this? https://boydsmaps.com/#16.00/39.772385/-74.451653/lidar2021hd/0.00/0.00 If so, then yes, those are features that the USGS classifies as "intermittent streams". If you switch to the USGS topo, you will see something...

    Cellphone outage

    Is it affecting you? Not much info about this yet, on the news they said Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T users were all reporting outages, with the majority from AT&T. A little later, T-Mobile and Verizon said they were not aware of any problems. AT&T says they're working on it. I have AT&T and no...

    Snow coming next week?

    About two inches at my place, no big deal but looks pretty. With the temperature going up to around 40 and the warm ground below, it won't last long. But it could be slippery tomorrow morning after freezing overnight. My so-called driveway. Out on the road
