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

March 8, 2022

This imagery dataset consists of 3-meter resolution, lidar-derived imagery of the Harrisburg 30 x 60 minute quadrangle in Pennsylvania. It also covers part of the Delaware River Basin. The source data used to construct this imagery consist of 1-meter and 3-meter resolution lidar-derived digital elevation models (DEMs). The lidar source data were compiled from different acquisitions published between 2013 and 2018 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Geological Survey (USGS). The data were processed using geographic information systems (GIS) software. The data are projected in North America Datum (NAD) UTM Zone 18 North. This representation illustrates the terrain as a hillshade with contrast adjusted to highlight local relief according to a topographic position index (TPI) calculation.
