Detailed GIS viewer for Detroit ?

[Willi]

Is there a detailed GIS viewer for the City of Detroit , by itself, solo,
as exists for Macomb County http://gis.macombgov.org/flexviewer2/

An amazing amount of highly detailed info, free to the public
exists on the Macomb County Flex viewer .

This site was okay, but not impressive

The concept of managing info geographically goes way beyond a
paper map of yesteryear – all you can do with a paper map
is stick an arrow on it with a note, creating a mess of notes.
A virtual geographic map has 100′s of layers of info for 1 specific dot.
Some call GIS the act of “unlocking data trapped in paper”.

GIS is the future and Spatial Thinking will become mainstream.
The old antiquated “linear” thinking mode of providing info needs to be ditched.

A geographic information system [[GIS) lets us humans use our
visual sense combined with our analytical brain to get a better
handle on interpreting and understanding the world around us.
Making data “visual” reveals trends, relationships, and patterns
easily missed by ordinary flat graphing methods.

Record Keeping via work orders, pictures, reports, etc. can exist
with 1 specific dot on a virtual map transforming it into an info system.
Decisions about a location will be done with real-time point/click access.
GIS allows the Ask, Acquire, Examine, Analyze, Act, scenario to take place.

Augmented reality fits in well with all that too.

Just to give myself some props, I was one of the original workers on that Macomb County GIS map. I completed Shelby Twp, Macomb Twp, and Chesterfield Twp as an intern during the summer of 2011. Thank you for sharing! Proud Transportation Planner right here..

How do you keep from getting into arguments on this Website? LOL.

I worked on TIGER for the census bureau back in 1986-87. At the time we were integrating USGS maps with address files. Pretty crude stuff compared to what is available today.
