Talk:New York Maps

WikiProject New York Progress Chart

What about GIS & online mapping tools
Seeking second opinions here. This page is written as though GIS doesn't exist. But MapQuest and its competitors have been available free online for about a quarter century. Plus multiple large historic map collections have been digitized for free access. Do any of the sources listed here still produce and distribute paper maps? I have my doubts.

My guess, and I could be wrong, is that the small population still reliant on paper maps is the same population who has little or no computer access and expertise. So this page doesn't even serve their needs. It seems like it needs to be rewritten from scratch to focus on access to online map collections. Please chime in with your thoughts.

 * Researchlibrary: I couldn’t agree with you more. You are exactly right that this is an out of date article. It definitely needs an update and rehaul as the last real edits to the content on the page was in 2012. A lot has changed since then. I will add the Map pages for each state to the list of pages for my team to reformat and update information to better suit the needs of researchers today. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. With 100,000 articles, it’s hard to be on top of all the Wiki pages that need serious updating. And there are more hiding out there. Batsondl (talk) 15:18, 6 April 2022 (MDT)

Meant no criticism! You have a lot on your plates. If there is a table of contents that can be copied & pasted from a more up-to-date page on state maps, I'd be willing to help flesh it out. Researchlibrary (talk) 09:37, 11 April 2022 (MDT)
