Description:
Abstract:
Polygonal areas delineating ranges of elevations (e.g. 1-50 feet above mean sea level,50-250 feet above msl, etc.) generated from analysis of U.S. Geological Survey 1:250,000 digital elevation models for the state of Texas.
Purpose:
To display elevations of Texas for the Texas Hazard Mitigation Package (THMP).



For display/cartography at smaller map scales (smaller than 1:250,000).
Supplemental_Information:
Coverage was generated in Arc/Info by John T. Crews at the General Land Office
