During an overflight on May 11, we collected thermal images of the crater at Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō and created an updated 3D model of the crater geometry. The collapse on April 30 produced a large cavity, with the deepest point roughly 350 m (1150 feet) below the crater rim.
Are depression contours identified in 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) contour products?
Yes, depression contours are identified with tick marks in 3D Elevation Program products, but only in large scale contours (1:36,000 scale to 1:18,000 scale).

At what scales are contours visible in The National Map Viewer?
In the default base map for The National Map Advanced Viewer : 500-foot contours are visible at a scale of 1:578,000 (zoom level 10) 100-foot contours are visible at scales of 1:289,000-1:144,000 (zoom level 11-12) 50-foot contours are visible at a scale of 1:72,000 (zoom level 13) Large scale contours are visible at scales from 1:36,000-1:9,000 (zoom levels 14-16)
What are the projection, horizontal and vertical datum, format, and distributed tile extent of 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) contours?
Contours are not projected, but are provided in geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) in units of decimal degrees, and horizontally referenced to the North American Datum of 1983. Contour elevation values are vertically referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988. Contours are staged in Esri File Geodatabase 10.1 or Shapefile format, and distributed in 1x1 degree tiles.

The National Elevation Dataset (NED) is the primary elevation data product produced and distributed by the USGS National 3D Elevation Program (3DEP). The NED provides seamless raster elevation data of the conterminous United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and the island territories.
