Mapping
NOAA's Office for Coastal Management has a variety of mapping tools and resources in a collection they call "Digital Coast" such as the Flood Exposure tool and Sea Level Calculator.
Mass Mapper is a statewide mapping resource (info).
Massachusetts Interactive Property Map gives tax maps across the whole Commonwealth so you don't need to dig into some town-by-town divided database.
The Merrimack Valley Planning Commission (MVPC) makes "MiMap" available for each town, e.g. Salisbury MiMap, in the Merrimack Valley.
ArcGIS is a dominant commercial mapping (GIS) software created by parent company Environmental Systems Research Institute known by it's tradename ESRI. They offer an online mapping tool at https://www.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html
See GIS for a better overview of mapping software.

The Maps extension is included in Meza

Here's the new 'circles' feature for Leaflet maps (click to view Title and Description)
Leaflet Maps using the GeoJson namespace
This map of Berlin is displayed here. But it is defined on the GeoJson:Berlin page (in GeoJson format)
{{#display_map: center=Berlin | geojson=Berlin}} tries to display the data on the (default for this wiki) Google service - but Google doesn't work with GeoJson, so it just shows a map of the 'place' Berlin.
Compare that with:
{{#display_map: center=Berlin | geojson=Berlin | service=leaflet }}
By specifying the correct service (Leaflet), we get the proper map of Berlin, and the GeoJson data also included in the display.
