Basic Web Mapping Applications for Local Government
Many government would just like to put up a simple web mapping application to allow local citizens to access GIS data. The LAL currently has a prototype web site up and running for Centre County and would like to extend this service out to other counties but lack the funding to do so at this point.
CentreMap - Free Online Region Data Access & Map Making
The LAL has been working with the Centre Region Planning Agency in the development of an online, web-mapping resource called CentreMap. CentreMap will be a valuable resource to municipal officials, planners and residents within the region:
- Provide data access to the public at no charge
- Provide a means for individuals without GIS training or software to view and use the GIS data
- Generate public support for funding GIS-related municipal projects through data-availability.
