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

November 9, 2021

This imagery dataset consists of 3-meter resolution, Lidar-derived imagery of the Middletown 30 x 60 minute quadrangle. It covers part of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and part of the Delaware River Basin. The source data used to construct this imagery consists of 1-meter, 2-meter, and 3-meter resolution lidar-derived digital elevation models (DEM). The lidar source data were compiled from different acquisitions published between 2016 and 2021 from various sources. 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.
