The Latest Updates to the HydroAdd Tool
The HydroAdd tool is a web application built by USGS that allows collaborative addressing (or linear referencing) of diverse datasets to the NHD. HydroAdd also provides tools that allow users to migrate datasets that have been previously addressed to the NHD.

Lesson 2 - The Eight Layers of The National Map
In this lesson, we will discuss each of the eight base layers of The National Map (TNM). Understanding the content of each layer, where the data comes from, and how this information is managed, is an important step in better utilizing The National Map and its products and services.

Lesson 11a - The US Interagency Elevation Inventory (USIEI)
The US Interagency Elevation Inventory, or USIEI, is a nationwide listing of known publicly available high-accuracy topographic and bathymetric source elevation data for the United States and its territories. The inventory provides a single resource for information about all known completed and in-progress broad-area public domain elevation data.
