Enhanced Terrain Imagery of the Buena Vista 30 x 60 Minute Quadrangle from Lidar-Derived Elevation Models at 3-Meter Resolution

August 28, 2024

This imagery dataset consists of 3-meter resolution, lidar-derived imagery of the Buena Vista 30 x 60 minute quadrangle in Virginia and West Virginia. The source data used to construct this imagery consists of 1-meter lidar-derived digital elevation models (DEMs). The lidar source data were compiled from different acquisitions published between 2017 and 2021. The data were processed using geographic information systems (GIS) software. The data is projected in WGS 1984 Web Mercator. This representation illustrates the terrain as a hillshade with contrast adjusted to highlight local relief according to a topographic position index (TPI) calculation.
