WMS Map: Point 42, -74
About Point 42, -74 ....
The spot on the map you end up in Eastern NY when you are using unprojected coordinates in Eastern NY and forget to cast as a float. I wonder how many people end up at Glenhurst Stock Farm when their GPS or mapping program goes nutty.
Helpful Hint: While I suggest you look on blog for a downloadable PDF Map, you should be able to print or save this map by clicking the print button on the map above.
