Lately I’ve been posting most of the maps I’ve been making either including property boundaries of nearby properties or where tax maps aren’t available from county or state, ownership center points. I think this is useful information, especially if somebody is looking to ask permission from a neighboring landowner to access the land or hunt it.

I’ve also been including buildings on my more recent maps sourced from Microsoft Building Footprints database, which can be used to locate one’s location, especially towards the edges of properties. That dataset isn’t perfect but it’s much more complete then what’s currently in OpenStreetMap.
