Map Milwaukee Portal
Map Milwaukee is no longer a single application, but is a suite of applications with targeted data and functionality. Users still have the ability to add any available map layer to any of the map applications using the Add Map Layer tool [PDF]. Users also have access to advanced tools including querying data, drawing, measuring distance and areas, and exporting data to a spreadsheet. Our goal is to provide map applications that provide useful data and are easy to use, while also providing advanced functionality for experienced or curious users.
NOTE: the search by address or taxkey tools have been removed from the I Want To menu. Please use the search bar in the upper right corner of the screen when looking up an address.
