Enhancing Navigation and Connectivity for Cyclists and Pedestrians
The Village of Tupper Lake is undertaking significant infrastructure improvements to both public and private properties within the downtown area. These enhancements are guided by the Tupper Lake Revitalization and Action Plan. To support this initiative, Green Goat Maps was approached to create a cartographically designed wayfinding map series.

To meet the needs of the Village of Tupper Lake, Green Goat Maps was contracted to:
Create a detailed base map highlighting cycling routes, pedestrian paths, and key recreational assets.
Incorporate public points of interest such as parks, schools, and waterfront areas into the design.
Develop kiosk-ready maps tailored to five locations, including titles, legends, and "You Are Here" markers.
Align map designs with the Village’s branding and Revitalization Plan style guide.
Prepare files for direct printing on weather-resistant panels to ensure durability and readability.
Green Goat Maps delivered a versatile map series, including a detailed base map showcasing recreational assets, public facilities, and infrastructure. Additionally, five kiosk-ready maps were created, tailored to strategic locations with unique features such as walking time rings and localized navigation aids. These maps were formatted for printing as weather-resistant panels, ensuring long-term usability.
Challenges of This Project
Balancing functionality with aesthetic design was a critical challenge. The maps had to be accessible and user-friendly for both residents and visitors while aligning with the Village’s new branding. Ensuring data accuracy and coordinating with local stakeholders added layers of complexity that were successfully managed through collaborative efforts.
