Where to find land maps?

[SagaLore]

I'm looking for the land boundaries for the town I am in, Google is just leading me into dead ends. Is there a site that has these types of maps?

well.
there is data out there, but you need the software to display it.
im sure pennsylvania has a spatial data clearinghouse of some kind.
most of those files will be in shape file format.

Look around here

you have to have some sort of GIS (geographical info systems) application to view shapefiles.

you can PM me with your town info, im not really busy right now, i can try and find the shapefile and make a jpeg or something for you.

Wow, much more complicated than I thought it would be... all for a simple county map that shows the township boundaries. I just tried going through that site but already got lost. The town I'm in is Montgomery, PA 17752 which is is Lycoming County.

Giant PDF of the county. Shows Montgomery shown in an inset near the lower right corner. Hope you aren't on dial-up.

5th floor. That only works if you're in my building, though.

<- Works at USGS.

topozone

They have topographic maps which (I believe) also have the boundaries on them.

Cartographic skills are severely lacking, but I can get what I need on a map!

The reason I want to email it to him is because I exported it as a .tiff so it would look good and pic hosting doesn't support tiff.
