Launch Viewer for Town of Penfield

This visualization includes the following GIS datasets:

  • Floodplains
  • Geology
  • Parcels
  • Slopes
  • Soils
  • Streams
  • Waterbodies
  • Wetlands
  • Woodlots

Because of the volume of GIS Data integrated with this visualization, the viewer may take several minutes to load on your computer, and the performance may be slower than for visualizations without additional GIS data.

Caution should be exercised if trying to turn on all the GIS data layers at one time. It is recommended for maximum performance to limit the number of GIS layers on display at any given time to three (3).

NOTE: If you have any questions or would like additional information about Terrain Visualizations, please feel free to send us an email or call Ben Houston at (845)-679-9223.
