nice.

i figured they'd come up with that pretty soon. all the information required for it is available on the Mass GIS site and, if you know AutoCAD map or any GIS mapping software, you've been able to pretty easily assemble maps like that for a while now. This is much easier though.

Here's the link to all the info available on Mass GIS.

If you take the time to figure out how to use it, it is very helpful for lots of stuff. For basic stuff though, its easier to just use Google.

MA is 2005, unless it hasn't been updated. 2005 data is available from MA GIS atleast.

Josh,
Yeah; the parts I looked at in RI are currently USGS/Terraserver images. It was the RIDOT images available from RIGIS for a while. The USGS are killer images.

You can get some nice overlays for free via. just save the kmz file and open with GoogleEarth. every estuary NOAA has mapped....

I can waste the entire day looking at sites like this. Half the time in the South Pacific trying to figure out how I can move to a remote yet American owned place like American Samoa.
