2010 UPDATE

New and improved mapping experience!


The Center for Urban Research at the CUNY Graduate Center has completely updated the OASIS interactive maps. We've kept features that regular users have asked for (such as highlighting selected tax parcels and including property details with the Print option). But we've enhanced the maps in many ways:
  • They maps are easier to navigate.
  • We've added new tools such as:
    • a historical timeline slider to seamlessly transition between historic & current aerial photos,
    • a dynamic transparency control so you can set the transparency for any layer on the map, and
    • bird's eye views of any spot on the map.
  • There's lots more data you can display on the map (environmental stewardship turfs, views of Mannahatta circa 1609, zoning patterns, and pollution concerns such as "combined sewer outfall" locations, and more).
  • The UrbanOmnibus previewed some of the highlights in Fall 2009.
If you manage a website that provides direct links to community gardens or other locations on OASIS, it's easy to update your links.

For a short period of time, we'll still provide access to the "old" maps.
