How to find county and agency ArcGIS REST/Services

You can usually find county and agency ArcGIS REST/Services one of two ways:

  1. Type into Google Greene County NY “REST/Services” and search for the index then copy and paste into QGIS ArcGIS REST tab or use with Leaflet
  2. Type into Google Saratoga County NY Interactive Map, then open up Web Tools in your browser, click the Network tab on bottom and search for Network resources containing either the term MapServer or feature. Some might be the standard ArcGIS Aerial or Topographic layers but if you look carefully you can find the URL for the ARC MapServer or FeatureServer.

Moss Lake

Moss Lake, outside of Big Moose, has a decent swimming beach, although the water is pretty shallow and when you get out further into the lake, it's quite mossy and gross. But on the shallows of the lake, the sand is nice for wadding out and splashing around. Plus, there are eight quite nice campsites around the lake, along with an old woods road known as the "Moss Lake Circuit Trail".

Farms on the Outskirks of Delmar

Farms on the Outskirks of Delmar

Riding my mountain bike out to Five Rivers I often observe the Posted Signs to see who owns the farms and farmland in the still agricultural area just outside of Delmar. While this might not be all of the farm holdings in the area, this covers the major parcels and owners -- LaGrange, Haskell, Hope, Jersey Meadows, Lyman, Mead, Neff, Preska, Walenmaier and Vadney.

Brewerton

Brewerton - Syracuse

Brewerton is located on the western side of Oneida Lake and is bordered by the Oneida River which feeds into the Oswego River. This area is fairly flat with only modest rises of hills around the marshy areas at the end of the lake.
