(last updated: NOTE: I am in the process of pruning the dead links. This should be finished sometime in July. The following compilation of Internet/WWW sites is intended to be an introductory guide to some of the map and reference resources available via the World Wide Web. Consider using one of the WWW search engines if you are looking for a specific type of map or reference. The maps which are listed here have been selected because they are thought to be reasonably useful and/or interesting. They are categorized by geographical region although there are a couple of thematic categories such as Interactive Maps which both highlights the potential of the WWW and are also fun to use. Note that there is some overlap in geographic coverage between these categories. The emphasis is on displayable maps (e.g. images) rather than digital cartographic (GIS) and satellite data which can be found in the separate compilation Geodata Information Sources . There is also another listing which includes Weather Maps and Imagery

Welcome to the Oklahoma Center for Geospatial Information (OCGI). This site public service and research project of the Department of Geography at Oklahoma State University (OSU) with the collaboration and support of Strategic Consulting International (SCI) of Tulsa, Oklahoma. The metadata available from OCGI can be searched through the FGDC/NSDI Clearinghouse , and the website is a member of and indexed on The Geography Network and the GeoData.gov Clearinghouse OCGI is currently hosting websites for the Oklahoma Wind Power Initiative (OWPI), the Oklahoma Renewable Energy Consortium (OREC), the OSU Botanical Garden , and an interactive map site of all academic Geography Departments in North America . We will soon be adding websites for the Oklahoma State Historic Preservation Office and the Oklahoma Transportation Center (OTC). In addition to the websites mentioned above, OCGI hosts ArcIMS Mapservices for base maps of Oklahoma providing a comprehensive and standardized set of base layers for use by any ArcGIS 8.x user without downloading actual datasets to the workstation. The site also offers downloadable shapefiles for users who prefer to retrieve data to their workstation for most of the layers available in the ArcIMS Mapservices. The downloadable data is currently available on a statewide basis for all of Oklahoma. OCGI is also now providing (in BETA form) a map based retrieval function for downloading DOQQ and DRG images and worldfiles, as well as customized areal download of many of the vector based datasets offered as statewide shapefiles or in the Mapservices. We plan to further develop the user interface and display characteristics of this function over the upcoming weeks in order to make the site more user friendly and “what you see is what you get”.

Interactive Map of Geography Departments in the United States and Canada
NOTE: The geography folks at Oklahoma State have put a similar map on the web, at http://www.ocgi.okstate.edu/geogdept.htm . I encourage you to check it out. For one thing, it's department data are more up to date than mine. It also will give you additional data layers, such as highways, counties, and urban areas, when you zoom in. However, it is slower to use unless you have broadband, and I had problems several times with the tool buttons not showing up after a zoom or refresh. Oklahoma State's map was made with Internet Map Server technology (ArcIMS). When I started my map, this technology was not available; I made mine by making smart maps, turning them into dumb graphics, making image maps out of the dumb graphics, and then making html pages to put them in. This is one of the reasons I haven't updated the map very oftenit is a cumbersome process. However, after looking at OK State's map, I think there is still a place for mine on the web, so I intend to do a major update before the end of Fall Semester 2003. It has not been updated in two full years, and many of the links are out of date and others need to be added. I also want to add institutions that offer Associate degrees in geography or geographic technology. To those of you who have been faithfully emailing me with corrections and additions, my thanks for your patience and apologies for the long delay.

80. Whiskey Towns Of Oklahoma Territory
and oklahoma (New York Sanborn Map Co. 1903 College of Business Administration/oklahoma Department of of geography, University of oklahoma, all rights reserved
http://geography.ou.edu/research/whiskey.html
A Saloon on Every Corner:
Whiskey Towns of Oklahoma Territory, 1889-1907
Blake Gumprecht The Chronicles of Oklahoma 74:2 (Summer 1996), pp. 146-173. Introduction In the years before Oklahoma became a state, dozens of towns sprang up along the boundary of Oklahoma Territory to serve as supply centers for the Indians, cowboys and farmhands who lived across the border in Indian Territory. Many of these towns owed their existence and much of their early development to the fact that liquor was legal in Oklahoma but was forbidden a few miles away on Indian lands. This peculiar situation gave rise to a unique kind of town in Oklahoma the whiskey town where saloons lined the streets, bootleggers came to stock up, gambling was widespread, and brothels did a brisk trade in upstairs rooms. In the most notorious of these towns, outlaws ruled the streets and murder was common. More than a dozen such towns existed in Oklahoma Territory between 1889, when the first lands were opened for white settlement, and 1907, when Oklahoma voters approved prohibition for the new state. They included Lexington, probably the first true whiskey town, located on the north bank of the Canadian River across from the Chickasaw Nation; future oil towns like Cleveland and Ponca City; farm centers like Prague and Stroud; and a few settlements, such as Corner, Keokuk Falls and Violet Springs, that were so dependent on the saloons that they became ghost towns shortly after prohibition was enacted.
