    Description

    ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that maps characters like letters, numbers, and symbols to numerical codes, forming the early foundation of digital text representation. Its simplicity and compatibility made it a natural choice for early computing systems, especially in environments with limited graphical capabilities. Iconic Disk Operating System (DOS) games from the 1980’s, including Nethack, Rogue, and Moria, used ASCII to bring sprawling civilizations, characters, and events to life. This map adapts this method of representation using text symbols into our own world, representing selected features of the state of Arizona through ASCII art to challenge how we perceive familiar places and to view one such place with a new sense of wonder and fantasy.Other Information:Data Sources: Arizona Biomes/Land Cover data retrieved from Arizona Geographic Alliance; Interstates and Rivers retrieved from Arizona Department of Transportation; Urban boundaries retrieved from U.S. Census Bureau. Map created by Michael Huff, GISP, 2025.

    This story map tells the tale of Earth’s tectonic plates, their secret conspiracies, awe-inspiring exhibitions and subtle impacts on the maps and geospatial information we so often take for granted as unambiguous. But is it? We recommend you journey through this map on the trail we’ve manicured on the left. You will find yourself hovering over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge or swimming in magma deep within the Earth’s core. Have fun and we hope your voyage is fruitful!

    Description

    The Elizabeth River Trail (ERT) is a biking and pedestrian trail in the City of Norfolk that has transformed several former railroad rights-of-ways, connected predominantly by off-road and some on-road trails, into an urban trail. The trail provides recreational and educational opportunities as well as an alternate mode of transportation from the Norfolk Naval Base, located in the northern portion of the city, into downtown Norfolk. The nine-mile Elizabeth River Trail, which runs from Norfolk State University following the Elizabeth River northward to Terminal Boulevard, began with an abandoned railroad spur being transformed into a walking and bicycle trail. The Atlantic City Spur section of the trail neighbors the Midtown Tunnel and adjacent Plum Point Park. The Trail can be accessed at various points along the Elizabeth River to include the Waterside Festival Marketplace, the end of Southampton Avenue near the public health building, or at Claremont Avenue near Raleigh Avenue in West Ghent. The trail offers scenic views of the Elizabeth River and interpretive markers tell the history of the area and environment. For more information and a map of the complete trail visit norfolk.gov/bike.

    Description

    This style for ArcGIS Pro contains four north arrows. They have a glassy semitransparent white appearance with a shadow effect for better visibility over highly textured surfaces while muted enough to provide balance.Plus they're a bit of fun sizzle.Will they look good over your map? Maybe! I wouldn't try them over a solid basemap though. They will look pretty bad probably. They are intended for the busy high contrast varied hues of an imagery basemap. But of course you will do what you feel is right, which may include not using them for any map.There is an arrowhead style north arrow and a cardinal ring arrow. These are standard north arrow shapes available in ArcGIS Pro, but given the glassy appearance. A stylized "N" and a minimalist arrow were drawn as custom SVGs then added to ArcGIS Pro and given the glassy appearance.Enjoy! John Nelson

    Description

    The schema of this dataset pretty much follows that of MassGIS/EOEEA. Not all data represented here is protected in perpetuity. It is important to view the attribute table and review the MassGIS website documentation to fully understand this dataset. A departure from the MassGIS schema is a related table (tbl_info4_ICP). This table has 1-to-1 relationship with the primary feature class. The tbl_info4_ICP contains a lot of funny codes & IDs for the purposes of utilizing these data on the TrailsMV App and the Martha's Vineyard Land Bank website map. Look for other 'views' of this feature layer to see the data symbolized according to various attribute categories.

Description

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that maps characters like letters, numbers, and symbols to numerical codes, forming the early foundation of digital text representation. Its simplicity and compatibility made it a natural choice for early computing systems, especially in environments with limited graphical capabilities. Iconic Disk Operating System (DOS) games from the 1980’s, including Nethack, Rogue, and Moria, used ASCII to bring sprawling civilizations, characters, and events to life. This map adapts this method of representation using text symbols into our own world, representing selected features of the state of Arizona through ASCII art to challenge how we perceive familiar places and to view one such place with a new sense of wonder and fantasy.Other Information:Data Sources: Arizona Biomes/Land Cover data retrieved from Arizona Geographic Alliance; Interstates and Rivers retrieved from Arizona Department of Transportation; Urban boundaries retrieved from U.S. Census Bureau. Map created by Michael Huff, GISP, 2025.
