This imagery dataset consists of 1-meter resolution, Lidar-derived imagery of the Little Lehigh Basin area in Pennsylvania and covers part of the Delaware River Basin. The footprint of this dataset covers USGS Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) areas HUC 12-020401060701, HUC 12-020401060702 and part of HUC 12-020401060703. The source data used to construct this imagery consists of 1-meter resolution Lidar-derived digital elevation models (DEM). The Lidar source data were compiled from the Pennsylvania Geospatial Data Clearinghouse, published 2019. The data were processed using geographic information systems (GIS) software. The data is 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.
