Maple Trees Tapped

This interactive google map shows how many maple taps were driven in for each county. New York State and Vermont are the nation's biggest maple producers, but there are several other states that have smaller numbers of trees tapped. This is a consolidation of county level data, those counties with only one farm reporting maple production, were not included in the survey results, which depresses tap counts in counties that are marginal maple producers.

DEC Region 7 South

Interactive Google Map consisting of federal, state, local, and non-governmental public lands and parks within the following counties in DEC Region 7 South: Broome, Chenango, Cortland, Tioga and Tompkins counties. Up to 5 additional counties (for a total of ten) can be added to the map. Data can be downloaded as KML and GPX Tracks and Waypoints for use in Google Earth or handheld GPS units.

Updated March 25, 2017. New to this update are trail data for Buttermilk Falls State Park, Robert Treman, and Taughannock Falls State Park. New lean-tos, campsites, parking areas, and trails, roads added to state forests. Minor adjustments to state land boundaries.

Loading KML or GPX Files Into US Topo Maps Pro

US Topo Map Pro is the $8.47 program that I use on my Smartphone for this purpose. The free version of this program lacks the ability to cache maps for off-line use and does not have the ability to import GPS tracks.

The circle with the red dot (when in “My Location” mode), shows your current location on the map. Here I was overlooking Hell’s Gate at Schodack Island State Park.Screenshot_2015-05-09-15-56-05[1]

Earlier this week, I posted 62-county based files (zipped together) containing the source data except for the KMZ version with boundaries.

Google Earth KMZ (individual files, 12 KB – 3 MB): https://andyarthur.org/data/lands/kmzbounds/

Google Earth KMZ Without State Land Boundaries — better importing into some GPS (25 MB): https://andyarthur.org/data/lands/kmznobound.zip

GPX Tracks — trail data in GPX tracks format for GPS, contains no style data or facilities details except name (15 MB): https://andyarthur.org/data/lands/tracks.zip

GPX Waypoints — asset data in GPX waypoints for GPS, contains no style data or asset details except name/type (250 KB): https://andyarthur.org/data/lands/waypoints.zip

Here are screenshots showing the process for loading these files into US Topo Map Pro.

First unzip the file and copy it your GPS device.

Click the county you would like to load. Sometimes you need to load multiple counties when the locations you plan to explore cross county lines.Screenshot_2015-05-13-14-19-34Click tracks or waypoints to load the track then click import.Screenshot_2015-05-13-14-34-39Then select the track and click show on map.Screenshot_2015-05-13-14-33-35The tracks should appear on the map.Screenshot_2015-05-13-14-21-05Then add the way points. You can click on the waypoints to get the name and feature description.

Tapping on the balloon (waypoint) brings up a menu that lets you Go To (navigation will appear on the screen directing you to the balloon), share the location, or edit the location.
