IRIS Maps

Compass and map The IRIS interactive maps provide information on infrastructure and resources in the State. They have been arranged in a series of themes as listed below.

The IRIS maps are in SVG format (Scalable Vector Graphics) and for Internet Explorer, require an SVG Viewer which is available from the Adobe site*. The maps work natively in Firefox 2.0 and Opera browsers.
