• Indiana Coal Maps

  IndianaMap.org is the public source for map data in Indiana. It includes the information people need most in a format that is accessible to both the general public and expert geographic information systems (GIS) users. It is a portfolio of projects that involve the collaborative efforts of federal, state, and local partners. The purpose of these efforts is to acquire, improve, and deliver a wide variety of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data for Indiana. This geographic information has many uses, including transportation planning, economic development, environmental assessment, and emergency response. The GIS data is easily accessible in public libraries, and from the website as interactive maps for the general public, Web Map Services for GIS professionals, and downloadable data.

  The Indiana Coal Mine Information System web page was created to provide online access to maps showing locations of coal mines in Indiana.
