This dataset contains 50-ft contours for the Hot Springs shallowest unit of the Ouachita Mountains aquifer system potentiometric-surface map. The potentiometric-surface shows altitude at which the water level would have risen in tightly-cased wells and represents synoptic conditions during the summer of 2017. Contours were constructed from 59 water-level measurements measured in selected wells (locations in the well point dataset). Major streams and creeks were selected in the study area from the USGS National Hydrography Dataset (U.S. Geological Survey, 2017), and the spring point dataset with 18 spring altitudes calculated from 10-meter digital elevation model (DEM) data (U.S. Geological Survey, 2015; U.S. Geological Survey, 2016). After collecting, processing, and plotting the data, a potentiometric surface was generated using the interpolation method Topo to Raster in ArcMap 10.5 (Esri, 2017a). This tool is specifically designed for the creation of digital elevation models and imposes constraints that ensure a connected drainage structure and a correct representation of the surface from the provided contour data (Esri, 2017a). Once the raster surface was created, 50-ft contour interval were generated using Contour (Spatial Analyst), a spatial analyst tool (available through ArcGIS 3D Analyst toolbox) that creates a line-feature class of contours (isolines) from the raster surface (Esri, 2017b). The Topo to Raster and contouring done by ArcMap 10.5 is a rapid way to interpolate data, but computer programs do not account for hydrologic connections between groundwater and surface water. For this reason, some contours were manually adjusted based on topographical influence, a comparison with the potentiometric surface of Kresse and Hays (2009), and data-point water-level altitudes to more accurately represent the potentiometric surface.

The Viewshed analysis layer is used to identify visible areas. You specify the places you are interested in, either from a file or interactively, and the Viewshed service combines this with Esri-curated elevation data to create output polygons of visible areas. Some questions you can answer with the Viewshed task include:What areas can I see from this location? What areas can see me?Can I see the proposed wind farm?What areas can be seen from the proposed fire tower?The maximum number of input features is 1000.Viewshed has the following optional parameters:Maximum Distance: The maximum distance to calculate the viewshed.Maximum Distance Units: The units for the Maximum Distance parameter. The default is meters.DEM Resolution: The source elevation data; the default is 90m resolution SRTM. Other options include 30m, 24m, 10m, and Finest.Observer Height: The height above the surface of the observer. The default value of 1.75 meters is an average height of a person. If you are looking from an elevation location such as an observation tower or a tall building, use that height instead.Observer Height Units: The units for the Observer Height parameter. The default is meters.Surface Offset: The height above the surface of the object you are trying to see. The default value is 0. If you are trying to see buildings or wind turbines add their height here.Surface Offset Units: The units for the Surface Offset parameter. The default is meters.Generalize Viewshed Polygons: Determine if the viewshed polygons are to be generalized or not. The viewshed calculation is based upon a raster elevation model which creates a result with stair-stepped edges. To create a more pleasing appearance, and improve performance, the default behavior is to generalize the polygons. This generalization will not change the accuracy of the result for any location more than one half of the DEM's resolution.By default, this tool currently works worldwide between 60 degrees north and 56 degrees south based on the 3 arc-second (approximately 90 meter) resolution SRTM dataset. Depending upon the DEM resolution pick by the user, different data sources will be used by the tool. For 24m, tool will use global dataset WorldDEM4Ortho (excluding the counties of Azerbaijan, DR Congo and Ukraine) 0.8 arc-second (approximately 24 meter) from Airbus Defence and Space GmbH. For 30m, tool will use 1 arc-second resolution data in North America (Canada, United States, and Mexico) from the USGS National Elevation Dataset (NED), SRTM DEM-S dataset from Geoscience Australia in Australia and SRTM data between 60 degrees north and 56 degrees south in the remaining parts of the world (Africa, South America, most of Europe and continental Asia, the East Indies, New Zealand, and islands of the western Pacific). For 10m, tool will use 1/3 arc-second resolution data in the continental United States from USGS National Elevation Dataset (NED) and approximately 10 meter data covering Netherlands, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Austria, Spain, Japan Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Italy, Northern Ireland, Switzerland and Liechtenstein from various authoritative sources.To learn more, read the developer documentation for Viewshed or follow the Learn ArcGIS exercise called I Can See for Miles and Miles.

This dynamic image service provides float values representing ground heights in meters, based on 3DEP seamless 1 arc-second data from USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP). Heights are orthometric (sea level = 0), and water bodies that are above sea level have approximated nominal water heights.Height units: MetersUpdate Frequency: AnnuallyCoverage: conterminous United States, Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, Territorial Islands of the United States; Canada and Mexico.Data Source: The data for this layer comes from 3DEP seamless 1 arc-second dataset from the USGS's 3D Elevation Program with original source data in its native coordinate system.What can you do with this layer?Use for Visualization: This layer is generally not optimal for direct visualization. By default, 32 bit floating point values are returned, resulting in higher bandwidth requirements. Therefore, usage should be limited to applications requiring elevation data values. Alternatively, client applications can select from numerous additional functions, applied on the server, that return rendered data. For visualizations such as hillshade, slope, consider using the appropriate server-side function defined on this service.

Use for Analysis: Yes. This layer provides data as floating point elevation values suitable for use in analysis. The layer is restricted to a 24,000 x 24,000 pixel limit.

NOTE: The image service uses North America Albers Equal Area Conic projection (WKID: 102008) and resamples the data dynamically to the requested projection, extent and pixel size. For analyses requiring the highest accuracy, when using ArcGIS Desktop, you will need to use native coordinates (GCS_North_American_1983, WKID: 4269) and specify the native resolutions (0.0002777777777779 degrees) as the cell size geoprocessing environment setting and ensure that the request is aligned with the source pixels.

Server Functions: This layer has server functions defined for the following elevation derivatives. In ArcGIS Pro, server function can be invoked from Layer Properties - Processing Templates. Slope Degrees Slope Percentage Aspect Hillshade Slope Degrees MapThis layer has query, identify, and export image services available. The layer is restricted to a 24,000 x 24,000 pixel limit.

Bathymetry is the measurement of the depth of the ocean floor, data that can be used for a variety of purposes such as: nautical charting, oceanographic research and modeling, habitat classification, maritime commerce, and recreational applications. The Multibeam Bathymetry Database (MBBDB) at NCEI collects and archives multibeam data from the earliest commercial installations (circa 1980) through today's modern high-resolution collections. Data are acquired from both U.S. and international government and academic sources (see individual cruise metadata records for source information) and consist of the raw (as collected) sonar data files. Datasets may also include processed or edited versions of the sonar data, ancillary data (i.e., sound velocity data), derived products (i.e., grids), and/or metadata for the data collection. The MBBDB provides data that span the globe and are discoverable and accessible via map interface or text-only search options. More information about the database can be found here.This ArcGIS image service provides a color shaded relief visualization of gridded multibeam data from the entire archive. Each individual survey has been gridded at a 3 arc-second cell size (~100m), divided into 10-degree tiles, then organized into an ArcGIS mosaic dataset. "Overviews" are then built upon the underlying tiles to provide a seamless raster that combines all the surveys. Where surveys overlap, the mean depth value of the contributing surveys is used.Note: NCEI's archive typically contains the raw, unedited multibeam data provided by the data contributors. There are some erroneous depth values and/or data artifacts visible in this service. These data should not be used for navigational purposes.There are three services providing access to the multibeam archive:Multibeam Bathymetry Mosaic (REST endpoint): provides depth values (default) or shaded-relief imagery. All surveys are combined together (using mean depth value) into "overviews".Multibeam Bathymetry Mosaic: Shaded Relief Visualization: tiled image service, provides rapid display of color shaded relief imagery.Multibeam Bathymetry Mosaic Subsets (REST endpoint): provides access to the individual surveys, and allows filtering by survey ID, platform name, source organization, survey date, etc. This service has slower performance than the others.This tiled service is also available as a downloadable tile package (.tpkx file) usable in ArcGIS Pro / ArcGIS Desktop software.For ship tracks of the multibeam surveys, along with additional metadata and links to obtain the data, see the corresponding Multibeam Bathymetric Surveys service.NCEI's Bathymetric Data Viewer (NOAA GeoPlatform entry) provides an interactive mapping interface to the multibeam database as well as other sources of bathymetric data.For visualization, the water depths are displayed using this color ramp:Mosaic last updated: Mar. 5, 2024.Metadata for the Multibeam Bathymetric Database
