He told the committee that since that time, there had been 370,000 hits on the public part of the website and many more than that on the internal version of the site. He said he continues to be amazed at how fast the site loads with over 3.5 terabytes of data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the changes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Users of lidar flood mapping now have the ability to access digital elevation models.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Water elevation data also available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flood line mapping has been updated to show detailed locations of where potential flood lands are located based on the ground elevation lidar data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digital surface modelling is now included, which shows top of trees, buildings, hydro lines, etc. and includes surface model elevation to help determine heights of trees, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A new feature helps model shadows cast by buildings, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>District has completed data-sharing agreement with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry for lidar mapping information that can be downloaded from the Ministry&#8217;s website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New 2023 3D air photos have been added to both the public and internal parts of the site. Good said that since 2018, about 15,000 new buildings have been added.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Access the site <a href=\"https:\/\/map.muskoka.on.ca\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">HERE<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s an important community tool used by municipal planning departments, realtors, planning consultants, community members and others and it just got better, the District planning committee heard at its May [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1904,"featured_media":155294,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-155292","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
