3D Elevation Program—District of Columbia
July 31, 2026
Using 3D Elevation Program data, a modern illustration of the District of Columbia's landscape showcases its elevation differences in vivid detail. This map has been consistently adjusted and colorized according to the highest and lowest elevations, accentuating differences across the District of Columbia. To further emphasize landforms, shaded relief has been added on top of the elevation colors.
