Detailed Description

Example of distance-to-nearest-road dataset for the Chino Hills area in Orange County, California. From left to right, the images are SRTM shaded relief, Landsat image (color infrared rendition), and distance-to-nearest-road dataset and road network (dark blue = zero meters to nearest road; red = = 2,130 meters to nearest road). Topographic change polygons (blue = cut; red = fill) are overlaid on each image. The arrows indicate cut and fill associated with construction of a new major highway. Note that the new highway is not included in the source data used to calculate distance-to-nearest-road.
