Marion County, Iowa -GIS and Digital Mapping At Home
Whether we realize it or not many
of us have become involved in using GIS and digital mapping in our everyday
lives. Bing Maps, Google Maps, hand-held and in-car GPS units, E-911 Emergency
Response, commercial and governmental web sites, smartphones and "dumb" phones,
all involve GIS, GPS, and digital mapping in our lives. The purpose of this page
is to provide access to software resources that include GIS mapping software,
aerial imagery viewing software, and data resources you can use at home.
Marion County Government makes no implied or express warranty as to the safety,
quality, or suitability of the software or web sites listed below. The user
should always practice safe computing and practice do diligence before
downloading and using any software obtained from the internet. If
you are primarily interested in viewing aerial imagery of Marion County and
other Iowa counties, and you are using a Windows pc, the easiest way is to
download and install the
LizardTech GeoViewer and then go to the
NRGIS Library and download the imagery to run in the GeoViewer. If you are
an Apple Mac user, download and install the TNTatlas for Mac viewer, I have
tested this and it works on OS X.
