GIS and Maps
BWG's Information Technology team offers Geographic Information Systems (GIS) services, maps and applications. Staff and the general public can access and explore geographical information using our online interactive maps as seen below.
If you are a contractor/consultant looking for shapefiles (.shp), autocad drawings (.dwg) or tabular data, please fill out the GIS Data Agreement located here.
How to use the map:
- To turn the map layers on/off, click on the Map Layers icon at the top right corner of the interactive map. A window will pop-up!
- Once the Maps Layers window appears, click the Eye icon next to the layer to make it visible or hide it. The 3 dots next to the layer will open a separate menu with other layer options including zoom, opacity, and layer details.
- Click on the Legend icon to reveal a list of the different symbols used on the map.
- To search addresses, change the basemap view, or measure distances, use the Search, Basemap, and Measure icons located on the top left of the map (under the BWG logo).
- If multiple layers are selected, once you click on an area of the map, a window will appear showing the layer details. Toggle between the layer info but using the next and previous arrows on the top right of the pop-up window.
- Click here to adjust the size of the interactive map based on your screen's size (i.e. smaller screens like phones, tablets, or small laptops).
