Data Source
WhiteStar's Digital Elevation Models (DEM) are based on the USGS National Elevation Database (NED) 30 meter grid.
Enhancement
WhiteStar has processed the data to remove banding artifacts and edge-match adjoining DEMs. Elevations are available in seamless gridded form or as vectors contoured to user specifications. WhiteStar uses ESRI GIS software to assign z-values and label contour lines. All elevation data can be reprojected into user-specified coordinate systems.
