Technical Details

Play Outside was developed by the Division of Parks & Recreation in partnership with the Department of Technology and Information. It uses Geographic Information System (GIS) software to present information from the Delaware Outdoor Recreation Inventory combined with data such as road information from DelDOT.

The information can be viewed over a standard road map or over the latest Delaware aerial photography. Users can browse the map to find information, or use a search function to find the nearest outdoor recreation opportunity. The data in the system is updated on an ongoing basis by state agencies and others. Much of the data is also available through the Delaware FirstMap geospatial data website.
