MassGIS Web Mapping Services
Co-winner, URISA ESIG Award 2005, Enterprise System
1. What are MassGIS Web Mapping Services?
Massachusetts Broadband Institute Survey
The MassGIS Web Mapping Services were
developed as part of a Massachusetts
Information Technology Division E-Government
initiative started in March 2001. The web
mapping services were envisioned as one of
four common, statewide “shared services”.
(web mapping, customer relations
management, credit card payments, security)
MassGIS takes care of these details so
government entities don’t have to:
-Purchase of servers, bandwidth
-Purchase, installation and configuration of
software (database, web mapping, web serving)
-Loading GIS data and keeping it up-to-date.

Agencies don’t need to spend time, money
or staff on these functions. Their
programmers can focus on developing an
application (in any programming language
with XML support) and include maps.
The services currently receive an average
of 75,000 requests per day.
