IntroductionIntroduction
You will be using USGS map data and You will be using USGS map data and ArcMap to learn how information from ArcMap to learn how information from aerial photography, land elevation, aerial photography, land elevation, and landmarks/features can be used and landmarks/features can be used and interpreted. and interpreted.
The information you will be applying is The information you will be applying is used by US, state, and even local used by US, state, and even local government for things from government for things from development to planning.development to planning.
Introduction of the 3 Introduction of the 3 Map Data TypesMap Data Types Digital Elevation Model (DEM)Digital Elevation Model (DEM)
– A raster representation of the terrain’s surfaceA raster representation of the terrain’s surface– Accuracy varies depending on the level of DEMAccuracy varies depending on the level of DEM
Digital Line Graphs (DLG)Digital Line Graphs (DLG)– Vector representations of most features and Vector representations of most features and
attributesattributes– Warranted to be free of topological defectsWarranted to be free of topological defects

(digital orthophoto quarter (digital orthophoto quarter quadrangles)quadrangles)
Raster images created by scanning black and white vertical aerial photographs into a computer
Image is digitally warped to correct distortion in terrain relief and camera tilt in a process called orthorectification
Scale is uniform throughout the image. Therefore it is possible to measure distance directly on the map.
