| Abstract | This dataset contains contours generated from high resolution data sources such as LiDAR. Generally speaking this data is 2 foot or less contour interval. |
| Use Tips | These data are extremely dense. For that reason they have been broken into quarter quad (1/4 of a 24k USGS Topo sheet) tiles. Please check the "Data Status Map" to see if tiles are available for your area of interest. Most of the state is NOT done - we are adding it as it becomes available to us. |
