NOAA's Office for Coastal Management has a variety of '''mapping tools''' and resources in a collection they call "'''[https://coast.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/tools/ Digital Coast]"''' such as the [https://coast.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/tools/flood-exposure.html Flood Exposure] tool and [https://coast.noaa.gov/sealevelcalculator/ Sea Level Calculator].

'''[https://maps.massgis.digital.mass.gov/MassMapper/MassMapper.html Mass Mapper]''' is a statewide mapping resource ([https://www.mass.gov/info-details/massmapper-interactive-map info]).

'''[https://massgis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/basicviewer/index.html?appid=47689963e7bb4007961676ad9fc56ae9# Massachusetts Interactive Property Map]''' gives '''tax maps''' across the whole Commonwealth so you don't need to dig into some town-by-town divided database.

The Merrimack Valley Planning Commission (MVPC) makes "MiMap" available for each town, e.g. [https://mimap.mvpc.org/map/index.html?viewer=salisbury Salisbury MiMap], in the Merrimack Valley.{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_4H1hnYAl4}}

'''ArcGIS''' is a dominant commercial mapping ([[GIS]]) software created by parent company '''Environmental Systems Research Institute''' known by it's tradename '''[[wp:Esri|ESRI]]'''. They offer an online mapping tool at https://www.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html

== Wiki Maps ==

The Maps extension is included in [[Meza]]

As of 2025-07-21, using v11.0.1 See [https://github.com/ProfessionalWiki/Maps/blob/master/RELEASE-NOTES.md Release Notes]

== ~~Trying a different~~ map service~~: Leaflet ==~~

== Boston using the Leaflet map service==

~~{{#display_map:Berlin|width~~=~~400|height=300|service~~=~~leaflet}}~~

== Circles on Leaflet ==

Here's the new '[https://maps.extension.wiki/wiki/Displaying_Leaflet_maps#Circles circles]' feature for Leaflet maps (click to view Title and Description)

{{#display_map:circles=

Salisbury, MA:500;

Salisbury, MA:100~I am a title~And I am a description~green~0.7~10~blue~0.5

|service=leaflet

| zoom=14

}}

== Leaflet Maps using the GeoJson namespace ==

This map of Berlin is displayed here. But it is defined on the [[GeoJson:Berlin]] page (in GeoJson format)

<code><nowiki>{{#display_map: center=Berlin | geojson=Berlin}}</nowiki></code> '''tries''' to display the data on the (default for this wiki) Google service - but Google doesn't work with GeoJson, so it just shows a map of the 'place' Berlin.

Compare that with:<br>

<code><nowiki>{{#display_map: center=Berlin | geojson=Berlin | service=leaflet }}</nowiki></code>

By specifying the correct service (Leaflet), we get the proper map of Berlin, '''and''' the GeoJson data also included in the display.

{{#display_map: center=Berlin | geojson=Berlin | service=leaflet }}
