The NYS Hillshade was created by the NYS ITS Geospatial Services and is generated using the latest Bare Earth DEMs with the Statewide USGS 10 Meter DEM to fill in gaps where higher resolution models currently do not exist. The 10 Meter hillshade is visible at all levels and high resolution hillshades turn on under 1:500,000. Last Updated 02/18/2022, with the NYS Central Finger Lakes project.

This layer portrays elevation as an artistic hillshade. The map is designed to be used as a backdrop for topographical, soil, hydro, landcover or other outdoor recreational maps. It’s a default relief background in various basemaps such as Topographic, Terrain with Labels.The map is compiled from a variety of data sources from commercial, community maps and many authoritative organizations across the globe. The basemap has global coverage down to a scale of ~1:72k. In the United States, parts of Europe, Asia and Africa coverage goes down to ~1:9k. To see the coverage and sources of various datasets comprising this map layer, view the Elevation Coverage Map. Additionally, this layer uses data from Maxar’s Precision 3D Digital Terrain Models for parts of the globe.The map is based on the Multi-directional hillshade algorithm.Precise Tile RegistrationThe World Hillshade map uses the improved tiling scheme “WGS84 Geographic, Version 2” to ensure proper tile positioning at higher resolutions (neighborhood level and beyond). The new tiling scheme is much more precise than tiling schemes of the legacy basemaps Esri released years ago. We recommend that you start using this new basemap for any new web maps in WGS84 that you plan to author. Due to the number of differences between the old and new tiling schemes, some web clients will not be able to overlay tile layers in the old and new tiling schemes in one web map.

Saved as a web map to be included in the basemap selector.

US Geologic Service (USGS) Digital Raster Graphics (1:24000 scale) for the State of Georgia, combined with a hillshade visualization of a 10 meter Digital Elevation Model (DEM). A DRG is an image of a USGS standard series topographic map scanned at a minimum resolution of 250 dots per inch, and georeferenced to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection. Each 7.5-minute DRG provides coverage for an area of land measuring 7.5-minutes of latitude by 7.5-minutes longitude. The horizontal positional accuracy and datum of the DRG matches that of the source map. The National Elevation Dataset (NED) is produced and distributed by the USGS. The NED is derived from diverse sources and processed to a common coordinate system and unit of vertical measure. NED data are in geographic coordinates (decimal degree units) and conform with the North American Datum of 1983. Elevation values are in meters, and referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 over the conterminous US. Although these data have been processed successfully on a computer system at the Georgia GIS Data Clearinghouse, no warranty expressed or implied is made by Georgia GIS Data Clearinghouse regarding the utility of the data on any other system, nor shall the act of distribution constitute any such warranty.

These mapping missions combined to collect bathymetry (sheets 1, 2) from about the 10-m isobath to beyond the 3-nautical-mile limit of California's State Waters. A large portion of this map area was re-mapped in 2009, however the older bathymetry data were used in this map due to co-registered, acoustic backscatter data.

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. This dataset was derived from Geoscience Australia, 1 second SRTM Digital Elevation Model (DEM) datasets. You can find a link to the parent dataset in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The History Field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.

Two shaded relief (hillshade) datasets were developed, mimicking the effects of sunlight on topography for map making purposes. This dataset provides options for Hillshade use derived from the 1 second DEM-s.

One dataset is named '1shillshade' and was created using an Azimuth of 300 degrees and an Altitude of 30 degrees.

The other dataset, named '1shs_45d_30e' was created using a sun Azimuth of 45 degrees and Altitude of 30 degrees

Purpose

Provides identifiable visualisation of elevation and relief in maps for Bioregional Assessments. The two versions of data display different levels of relief and elevation depending on the topography of the region being viewed. It is the users responsibility to assess and assign the most appropriate version of hillshade to their map product.

Dataset History

Datasets were created from the 1 second DEM-s dataset (GUID: 9a9284b6-eb45-4a13-97d0-91bf25f1187b) in ArcCatalog version 10.0 using the Hillshade tool in the 3D Analyst toolbox.

The first dataset named '1shillshade' was created using a sun azimuth of 300 degrees and an altitude of 30 degrees as its tool parameters.

The second dataset, named '1shs_45d_30e' was created using a sun azimuth of 45 degrees and altitude of 30 degrees as its tool parameters.

This part of DS 781 presents data for bathymetry for several seafloor maps of the Offshore of Gaviota Map Area, California. The vector data file is included in "BathymetryHS_OffshoreGaviota.zip," which is accessible from https://doi.org/10.5066/F7TH8JWJ. These data accompany the pamphlet and map sheets of Johnson, S.Y., Dartnell, P., Cochrane, G.R., Hartwell, S.R., Golden, N.E., Kvitek, R.G., and Davenport, C.W. (S.Y. Johnson and S.A.

Shaded-relief bathymetry of the Offshore of Gaviota map area in southern California was generated from acoustic-bathymetry data collected largely by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and by Fugro Pelagos Inc. Acoustic mapping was completed between 2007 and 2008 using a combination of 400-kHz Reson 7125, 240-kHz Reson 8101, and 100-kHz Reson 8111 multibeam echosounders, as well as a 234-kHz SEA SWATHplus bathymetric sidescan-sonar system. In addition, bathymetric-lidar data was collected in the nearshore area by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Joint Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise in 2009 and 2010. These mapping missions combine to provide continuous bathymetric data from the shoreline to beyond the limit of California's State Waters.
