Community Maps Program
Communities can contribute data or services to add detail and context for local maps and apps that benefit their citizens. These contributions allow for local personalization, offering an opportunity for communities to put their neighborhoods on the map by including the details that make an area special. Users can contribute the following:
- Athletic fields, walking paths, and trees
- Addresses, building footprints, rooftops, and street locations
- Land elevation, bathymetry, hydrology, and stream gauges
- Basemap layers and imagery
