NPMS Public Viewer

We’re glad we found this app a few years ago. We understand that the public can’t zoom in too close on pipelines due to security issues, but it shows you what’s in your area, including hazardous chemical pipelines, and incidents, such as spills, that you might not know otherwise. We even had a reporter reach out to us when there was an explosion and injuries at a facility that didn’t appear on the state’s oil and gas map because the state doesn’t oversee it (nor do states oversee pipelines). It was on this map in that county. We’ve shared screenshots multiple times for many purposes and regularly recommend it.

This app has been out for 4 years. While it does give notice, the fact that you can’t zoom in below 2000 meters without losing “NPMS data” means an update is well past due. The error popup (which simply says “error”) prevents any successful query. It also appears to be intermittent, but that alone is enough for an immediate uninstall. As it is, this app is not of much use.

Work as intended without issue.
