Green Pattern Map

An interactive map for the baltimore green pattern book.

Quick Notes

• A boundary is a geometric object overlay, e.g. neighborhoods.
• A layer is a set of points.
• Leaflet is all in WGS84, so I had to convert all boundaries to WGS84
  • NAD83_Maryland SRID is EPSG:2248
  • WGS84 is EPSG:4326
