    Description

    This map provides a colorized representation of slope, generated dynamically using server-side slope function on the Terrain layer. The degree of slope steepness is depicted by light to dark colors - flat surfaces as gray, shallow slopes as light yellow, moderate slopes as light orange and steep slopes as red-brown. A scaling is applied to slope values to generate appropriate visualization at each map scale. This service should only be used for visualization, such as a base layer in applications or maps. Note: If access to non-scaled slope values is required, use the Slope Degrees or Slope Percent functions, which return values from 0 to 90 degrees, or 0 to 1000%, respectively.Units: DegreesUpdate Frequency: QuarterlyCoverage: World/GlobalData Sources: This layer is compiled from a variety of best available sources from several data providers. To see the coverage and extents of various datasets comprising this service in an interactive map, see World Elevation Coverage Map.What can you do with this layer?Use for Visualization: Yes. This colorized slope is appropriate for visualizing the steepness of the terrain at all map scales. This layer can be added to applications or maps to enhance contextual understanding. Use for Analysis: No. 8 bit color values returned by this service represent scaled slope values. For analysis with non-scaled values, use the Slope Degrees or Slope Percent functions.For more details such as Data Sources, Mosaic method used in this layer, please see the Terrain layer. This layer allows query, identify, and export image requests. The layer is restricted to a 5,000 x 5,000 pixel limit in a single export image request.

    Description

    This layer provides slope percent rise values calculated dynamically from the elevation data (within the current extents) using the server-side slope function applied on the Terrain layer. Percent of slope is determined by dividing the amount of elevation change by the amount of horizontal distance covered (sometimes referred to as "the rise divided by the run"), and then multiplying the result by 100. The values range from 0 to essentially infinity. When the slope angle equals 45 degrees, the rise is equal to the run. Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this angle is 100 percent. As the slope approaches vertical (90 degrees), the percentage slope approaches infinity.Units: Percent (%)Update Frequency: QuarterlyCoverage: World/GlobalData Sources: This layer is compiled from a variety of best available sources from several data providers. To see the coverage and extents of various datasets comprising this service in an interactive map, see World Elevation Coverage Map.

    WARNING: Slope is computed in the projection specified by the client software. The server resamples the elevation data to the requested projection and pixel size and then computes slope. Slope should be requested in a projection that maintains correct scale in x and y directions for the area of interest. Using geographic coordinates will give incorrect results. For the WGS84 Mercator and WGS Web Mercator (auxiliary sphere) projections used by many web applications, a correction factor has been included to correct for latitude-dependent scale changes.What can you do with this layer?Use for Visualization: No. This image service provides numeric values indicating terrain characteristics. Due to the limited range of values, this service is not generally appropriate for visual interpretation, unless the client application applies an additional color map. Use for Analysis: Yes. This layer provides numeric values indicating slope percent, calculated based on the defined cell size. Cell size has an effect on the slope values. There is a limit of 5000 rows x 5000 columns. For Slope values in degrees, use Terrain - Slope Degrees layer. For more details such as Data Sources, Mosaic method used in this layer, please see the Terrain layer. This layer allows query, identify, and export image requests. The layer is restricted to a 5,000 x 5,000 pixel limit in a single export image request.This layer is part of a larger collection of elevation layers that you can use to perform a variety of mapping analysis tasks.

    Description

    The Susceptibility to Deep-Seated Landslides map covers the entire state of California and was originally published in May of 2011 as CGS Map Sheet 58. It made use of several data layers of varying scales and formats, such as Landslide Inventory, Geology, Rock Strength, and Slope. For the statewide analysis of landslide susceptibility, the methodology of Wilson and Keefer (1985) was used in combining the rock strength and slope data layers as implemented by Ponti, el al. (2008) to create classes of landslide susceptibility (0 to 10, low to high). These classes express the generalization that on very low slopes, landslide susceptibility is low even in weak materials, and that landslide susceptibility increases with slope and in weak rocks.For downloads of the raster data, please visit: MS58 Downloads.

    Description

    This dynamic World Elevation Terrain layer returns float values representing ground heights in meters and compiles multi-resolution data from many authoritative data providers from across the globe. Heights are orthometric (sea level = 0), and water bodies that are above sea level have approximated nominal water heights.Height units: MetersUpdate Frequency: QuarterlyCoverage: World/GlobalData Sources: This layer is compiled from a variety of best available sources from several data providers. To see the coverage and extents of various datasets comprising this service in an interactive map, see World Elevation Coverage Map.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 multi-directional hillshade, hillshade, elevation tinted hillshade, and 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. There is a limit of 5000 rows x 5000 columns.Note: This layer combine data from different sources and resamples the data dynamically to the requested projection, extent and pixel size. For analyses using ArcGIS Desktop, it is recommended to filter a dataset, specify the projection, extent and cell size using the Make Image Server Layer geoprocessing tool. The extent is factor of cell size and rows/columns limit. e.g. if cell size is 10 m, the extent for analysis would be less than 50,000 m x 50,000 m.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 Percent Aspect Ellipsoidal height Hillshade Multi-Directional Hillshade Dark Multi-Directional Hillshade Elevation Tinted Hillshade Slope Map Aspect Map Mosaic Method: This image service uses a default mosaic method of "By Attribute”, using Field 'Best' and target of 0. Each of the rasters has been attributed with ‘Best’ field value that is generally a function of the pixel size such that higher resolution datasets are displayed at higher priority. Other mosaic methods can be set, but care should be taken as the order of the rasters may change. Where required, queries can also be set to display only specific datasets such as only NED or the lock raster mosaic rule used to lock to a specific dataset.Accuracy: Accuracy will vary as a function of location and data source. Please refer to the metadata available in the layer, and follow the links to the original sources for further details. An estimate of CE90 and LE90 are included as attributes, where available.This layer allows query, identify, and export image requests. The layer is restricted to a 5,000 x 5,000 pixel limit in a single request.This layer is part of a larger collection of elevation layers that you can use to perform a variety of mapping analysis tasks.

    Description

    This layer generally describes Geologically Hazardous Areas as defined in TMC 13.11.700, including erosion and landslide hazard areas. It is used to review changes to these areas including development proposals, proposals for vegetation modification, and potential violations for compliance with critical area and building codes.This layer was derived from 2018 bare earth lidar. The initial analysis steps include: slope tool to create a % rise surface then using the int tool and reclassify using the 0-15, 15-25, 25-40 and >40 percent slope. Those classifications were converted to polygons. Further refinement was done to reduce the number of polygons. All areas in the >15% classification were deleted, all polygons <200ft in length and all polygons < 100 sq. ft. in area were deleted. Additional simplifying was done to create smoother boundaries of areas and a series of positive and negative buffers was used to remove holes in areas. Additional refinement to this was done including: (Deleted polygons <= 200 sq. ft. for Slope Category 15 - 25%. Deleted polygons <= 100 sq. ft. for Slope Category 25 - 40% & Over 40%)Data Steward contact: Craig Kuntz, ckuntz@cityoftacoma.org or Lisa Spadoni, Natural Resources Program Manager, lspadoni@cityoftacoma.org.

    Landforms are large recognizable features such as mountains, hills and plains; they are an important determinant of ecological character, habitat definition and terrain analysis. Landforms are important to the distribution of life in natural systems and are the basis for opportunities in built systems, and therefore landforms play a useful role in all natural science fields of study and planning disciplines. Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: LandformsGeographic Extent: GlobalProjection: WGS 1984Mosaic Projection: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereUnits: MetersCell Size: 231.91560581932 metersPixel Depth: 8-bit unsigned integerAnalysis: Restricted single source analysis. Maximum size of analysis is 30,000 x 30,000 pixels.Source: EsriPublication Date: May 2016ArcGIS Server URL: https://landscape7.arcgis.com/arcgis/ In February 2017, Esri updated the World Landforms - Improved Hammond Method service with two display functions: Ecological Land Units landform classes and Ecological Facets landform classes. This layer represents Ecological Facets landform classes. You can view the Ecological Land Units landform classes by choosing Image Display, and changing the Renderer. This layer was produced using the Improved Hammond Landform Classification Algorithm produced by Esri in 2016. This algorithm published and described by Karagulle et al. 2017: Modeling global Hammond landform regions from 250-m elevation data in Transactions in GIS. The algorithm, which is based on the most recent work in this area by Morgan, J. & Lesh, A. 2005: Developing Landform Maps Using Esri’s Model Builder., Esri converted Morgan’s model into a Python script and revised it to work on global 250-meter resolution GMTED2010 elevation data. Hammond’s landform classification characterizes regions rather than identifying individual features, thus, this layer contains sixteen classes of landforms:Nearly flat plains Smooth plains with some local relief Irregular plains with moderate relief Irregular plains with low hills Scattered moderate hills Scattered high hills Scattered low mountains Scattered high mountains Moderate hills High hills Tablelands with moderate relief Tablelands with considerable relief Tablelands with high relief Tablelands with very high relief Low mountains High mountains To produce these classes, Esri staff first projected the 250-meter resolution GMTED elevation data to the World Equidistant Cylindrical coordinate system. Each cell in this dataset was assigned three characteristics: slope based on 3-km neighborhood, relief based on 6 km neighborhood, and profile based on 6-km neighborhood. The last step was to overlay the combination of these three characteristics with areas that are exclusively plains. Slope is the percentage of the 3-km neighborhood occupied by gentle slope. Hammond specified 8% as the threshold for gentle slope. Slope is used to define how flat or steep the terrain is. Slope was classified into one of four classes: Percent of neighborhood over 8% of slopeSlope Classes0 - 20%40021% -50%30051% - 80%200>81% 100Local Relief is the difference between the maximum and minimum elevation within in the 6-km neighborhood. Local relief is used to define terrain how rugged or the complexity of the terrain"s texture. Relief was assigned one of six classes:Change in elevationRelief Class ID0 – 30 meters1031 meter – 90 meters2091 meter – 150 meters30151 meter – 300 meters40301 meter – 900 meters50>900 meters60The combination of slope and relief begin to define terrain as mountains, hills and plains. However, the difference between mountains or hills and tablelands cannot be distinguished using only these parameters. Profile is used to determine tableland areas. Profile identifies neighborhoods with upland and lowland areas, and calculates the percent area of gently sloping terrain within those upland and lowland areas. A 6-km circular neighborhood was used to calculate the profile parameter. Upland/lowland is determined by the difference between average local relief and elevation. In the 6-km neighborhood window, if the difference between maximum elevation and cell’s elevation is smaller than half of the local relief it’s an upland. If the difference between maximum elevation and cell’s elevation is larger than half of the local relief it’s a lowland. Profile was assigned one of five classes:Percent of neighborhood over 8% slope in upland or lowland areasProfile ClassLess than 50% gentle slope is in upland or lowland0More than 75% of gentle slope is in lowland150%-75% of gentle slope is in lowland250-75% of gentle slope is in upland3More than 75% of gentle slope is in upland4Early reviewers of the resulting classes noted one confusing outcome, which was that areas were classified as "plains with low mountains", or "plains with hills" were often mostly plains, and the hills or mountains were part of an adjacent set of exclusively identified hills or mountains. To address this areas that are exclusively plains were produced, and used to override these confusing areas. The hills and mountains within those areas were converted to their respective landform class. The combination of slope, relief and profile merged with the areas of plains, can be better understood using the following diagram, which uses the colors in this layer to show which classes are present and what parameter values produced them: What can you do with this layer?This layer is suitable for both visualization and analysis. It can be used in ArcGIS Online in web maps and applications and can be used in ArcGIS Desktop. Restricted single source analysis means this layer has size constraints for analysis and it is not recommended for use with other layers in multisource analysis. This layer is part of a larger collection of landscape layers that you can use to perform a wide variety of mapping and analysis tasks.

    Description

    The digital maps presented here were originally published as hard copy maps in the Coastal Zone Atlas of Washington between 1978 and 1980. Although the Atlas has been out of print for many years, the maps contain information that remain the basis for local planning decisions. After receiving multiple requests for electronic versions of portions of the Atlas, an effort was made to scan, georeference and digitize aspects of the Atlas, beginning with the slope stability maps. These maps indicate the relative stability of coastal slopes as interpreted by geologists based on aerial photographs, geological mapping, topography, and field observations. Such methods are standard, but may occasionally result in some unstable areas being overlooked and in some stable areas being incorrectly identified as unstable. Further inaccuracies are introduced to the data through the process of converting the published maps into digital format. Important land use or building decisions should always be based on detailed geotechnical investigations. This mapping represents conditions observed in the early and mid-1970s. Shorelines and steep slopes are dynamic areas and many landslides have occurred since that time that are not reflected on these maps. Subsequent human activities may have increased or decreased the stability of some areas.

    Description
    Displays areas with 40% steep slope or greater in the City of Seattle.

    A polygon feature class showing areas with an incline of 40% or more (10 feet of vertical rise over a horizontal distance of 25 feet or less) with a height of at least 10 feet.

    This layer was produced using a combination of 2001 LIDAR contours (Puget Sound LIDAR Consortium) and the 1993 topographic contours from aerial photos. The Steep Slope layer was most recently updated under SDCI Director's Rule 12-2019.
    The steep slope area map is called “advisory” because the mapping is used by the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections for initial information and screening. Whether or not a site is eventually treated as an environmentally critical area is based on the actual topography of the ground surface.
    For more information about the definition of steep slope erosion hazard areas, see Seattle Municipal Code section 25.09.012, Environmentally Critical Areas (ECA) definitions.

    Description

    These maps delineate the entire Puget Sound shoreline by geomorphic type. The primary purpose of the mapping was to identify feeder bluffs, eroding shorelines that are important to maintaining nearby beaches. Knowledge of the distribution of these features can be used by local planners and resource agencies to better manage Puget Sound shorelines. The study emphasized mapping of coastal bluffs, but also extended to a wide range of other coastal landforms, including rocky shores, river deltas, and small lagoons and estuaries. This mapping project is described in the following report, available from the Department of Ecology: MacLennan., A. Johannessen, J.W., Williams, S.A., Gerstel, W., Waggoner, J.F., and Bailey, A., 2013, Feeder Bluff Mapping of Puget Sound, prepared by Coastal Geologic Services, Bellingham, for Washington Department of Ecology, Olympia WA, 117 pp and map folio.

    Description

    PDF Map of FCC Form 477 provider reported maximum download speeds by census block for January - June 2020. This map seeks to highlight areas that are undeserved by terrestrial broadband (fiber/cable/dsl on the ground), with "underserved" defined as down/up speeds less than 25/3 Mbps.These data represent a static snapshot of provider reported coverage between January 2020 and June 2020. Maps also depict the locations of federally recognized tribes, Alaskan communities, ANCSA and borough boundaries.Broadband coverage is represented using provider reported speeds under the FCC Form 477 the amalgamated broadband speed measurement category based on Form 477 "All Terrestrial Broadband" as a proxy for coverage. This field is unique to the NBAM platform. These maps do not include satellite internet coverage (and may not include microwave coverage through the TERRA network for all connected areas).This map was produced by DCRA using data provided by NTIA through the NBAM platform as part of a joint data sharing agreement undertaken in the year 2021. Maps were produced using the feature layer "NBAM Data by Census Geography v4": https://maps.ntia.gov/arcgis/home/item.html?id=8068e420210542ba8d2b02c1c971fb20Coverage is symbolized using the following legend:No data avalible or no terrestrial coverage: Grey or transparent< 10 Mbps Maximum Reported Download: Red10-25 Mbps Maximum Reported Download: Orange25-50 Mbps Maximum Reported Download: Yellow50-100 Mbps Maximum Reported Download: Light Blue100-1000 Mbps Maximum Reported Download: Dark Blue_Description from layer "NBAM Data by Census Geography v4":This layer is a composite of seven sublayers with adjacent scale ranges: States, Counties, Census Tracts, Census Block Groups, Census Blocks, 100m Hexbins and 500m Hexbins. Each type of geometry contains demographic and internet usage data taken from the following sources: US Census Bureau 2010 Census data (2010) USDA Non-Rural Areas (2013) FCC Form 477 Fixed Broadband Deployment Data (Jan - Jun 2020) Ookla Consumer-Initiated Fixed Wi-Fi Speed Test Results (Jan - Jun 2020) FCC Population, Housing Unit, and Household Estimates (2019). Note that these are derived from Census and other data. BroadbandNow Average Minimum Terrestrial Broadband Plan Prices (2020) M-Lab (Jan - Jun 2020)Some data values are unique to the NBAM platform: US Census and USDA Rurality values. For units larger than blocks, block count (urban/rural) was used to determine this. Some tracts and block groups have an equal number of urban and rural blocks—so a new coded value was introduced: S (split). All blocks are either U or R, while tracts and block groups can be U, R, or S. Amalgamated broadband speed measurement categories based on Form 477. These include: 99: All Terrestrial Broadband Plus Satellite 98: All Terrestrial Broadband 97: Cable Modem 96: DSL 95: All Other (Electric Power Line, Other Copper Wireline, Other) Computed differences between FCC Form 477 and Ookla values for each area. These are reflected by six fields containing the difference of maximum, median, and minimum upload and download speed values.The FCC Speed Values method is applied to all speeds from all data sources within the custom-configured Omnibus service pop-up.

    Description

    This layer is subset of World Ecological Facets Landform Classes Image Layer. Landforms are large recognizable features such as mountains, hills and plains; they are an important determinant of ecological character, habitat definition and terrain analysis. Landforms are important to the distribution of life in natural systems and are the basis for opportunities in built systems, and therefore landforms play a useful role in all natural science fields of study and planning disciplines.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: LandformsUnits: MetersCell Size: 231.91560581932 metersSource Type: ThematicPixel Type: 8-bit unsigned integerData Coordinate System: WGS 1984Mosaic Projection: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereExtent: GlobalSource: EsriPublication Date: May 2016ArcGIS Server URL: https://landscape7.arcgis.com/arcgis/In February 2017, Esri updated the World Landforms - Improved Hammond Method service with two display functions: Ecological Land Units landform classes and Ecological Facets landform classes. This layer represents Ecological Facets landform classes. You can view the Ecological Land Units landform classes by choosing Image Display, and changing the Renderer. This layer was produced using the Improved Hammond Landform Classification Algorithm produced by Esri in 2016. This algorithm published and described by Karagulle et al. 2017: Modeling global Hammond landform regions from 250-m elevation data in Transactions in GIS.The algorithm, which is based on the most recent work in this area by Morgan, J. & Lesh, A. 2005: Developing Landform Maps Using Esri’s Model Builder., Esri converted Morgan’s model into a Python script and revised it to work on global 250-meter resolution GMTED2010 elevation data. Hammond’s landform classification characterizes regions rather than identifying individual features, thus, this layer contains sixteen classes of landforms:Nearly flat plainsSmooth plains with some local reliefIrregular plains with moderate relief Irregular plains with low hillsScattered moderate hillsScattered high hillsScattered low mountainsScattered high mountainsModerate hillsHigh hills Tablelands with moderate reliefTablelands with considerable reliefTablelands with high relief Tablelands with very high relief Low mountainsHigh mountainsTo produce these classes, Esri staff first projected the 250-meter resolution GMTED elevation data to the World Equidistant Cylindrical coordinate system. Each cell in this dataset was assigned three characteristics: slope based on 3-km neighborhood, relief based on 6 km neighborhood, and profile based on 6-km neighborhood. The last step was to overlay the combination of these three characteristics with areas that are exclusively plains. Slope is the percentage of the 3-km neighborhood occupied by gentle slope. Hammond specified 8% as the threshold for gentle slope. Slope is used to define how flat or steep the terrain is. Slope was classified into one of four classes: Percent of neighborhood over 8% of slopeSlope Classes0 - 20%40021% -50%30051% - 80%200>81% 100Local Relief is the difference between the maximum and minimum elevation within in the 6-km neighborhood. Local relief is used to define terrain how rugged or the complexity of the terrain's texture. Relief was assigned one of six classes:Change in elevationRelief Class ID0 – 30 meters1031 meter – 90 meters2091 meter – 150 meters30151 meter – 300 meters40301 meter – 900 meters50>900 meters60The combination of slope and relief begin to define terrain as mountains, hills and plains. However, the difference between mountains or hills and tablelands cannot be distinguished using only these parameters. Profile is used to determine tableland areas. Profile identifies neighborhoods with upland and lowland areas, and calculates the percent area of gently sloping terrain within those upland and lowland areas. A 6-km circular neighborhood was used to calculate the profile parameter. Upland/lowland is determined by the difference between average local relief and elevation. In the 6-km neighborhood window, if the difference between maximum elevation and cell’s elevation is smaller than half of the local relief it’s an upland. If the difference between maximum elevation and cell’s elevation is larger than half of the local relief it’s a lowland. Profile was assigned one of five classes:Percent of neighborhood over 8% slope in upland or lowland areasProfile ClassLess than 50% gentle slope is in upland or lowland0More than 75% of gentle slope is in lowland150%-75% of gentle slope is in lowland250-75% of gentle slope is in upland3More than 75% of gentle slope is in upland4Early reviewers of the resulting classes noted one confusing outcome, which was that areas were classified as "plains with low mountains", or "plains with hills" were often mostly plains, and the hills or mountains were part of an adjacent set of exclusively identified hills or mountains. To address this areas that are exclusively plains were produced, and used to override these confusing areas. The hills and mountains within those areas were converted to their respective landform class.The combination of slope, relief and profile merged with the areas of plains, can be better understood using the following diagram, which uses the colors in this layer to show which classes are present and what parameter values produced them:What can you do with this layer?This layer is suitable for both visualization and analysis. It can be used in ArcGIS Online in web maps and applications and can be used in ArcGIS Desktop.

Description

This map provides a colorized representation of slope, generated dynamically using server-side slope function on the Terrain layer. The degree of slope steepness is depicted by light to dark colors - flat surfaces as gray, shallow slopes as light yellow, moderate slopes as light orange and steep slopes as red-brown. A scaling is applied to slope values to generate appropriate visualization at each map scale. This service should only be used for visualization, such as a base layer in applications or maps. Note: If access to non-scaled slope values is required, use the Slope Degrees or Slope Percent functions, which return values from 0 to 90 degrees, or 0 to 1000%, respectively.Units: DegreesUpdate Frequency: QuarterlyCoverage: World/GlobalData Sources: This layer is compiled from a variety of best available sources from several data providers. To see the coverage and extents of various datasets comprising this service in an interactive map, see World Elevation Coverage Map.What can you do with this layer?Use for Visualization: Yes. This colorized slope is appropriate for visualizing the steepness of the terrain at all map scales. This layer can be added to applications or maps to enhance contextual understanding. Use for Analysis: No. 8 bit color values returned by this service represent scaled slope values. For analysis with non-scaled values, use the Slope Degrees or Slope Percent functions.For more details such as Data Sources, Mosaic method used in this layer, please see the Terrain layer. This layer allows query, identify, and export image requests. The layer is restricted to a 5,000 x 5,000 pixel limit in a single export image request.

This layer is part of a larger collection of elevation layers that you can use to perform a variety of mapping analysis tasks.
