Hardcopies
- Orthoimagery hardcopies are available in two sizes (wall or report) at various map scales
- Historic aerial imagery hardcopies are available as prints of individual scans at an approximate scale of 1" = 400' (wall size only).
Digital Topographic Contours:
- Available for the DVRPC 9-county region (by county) on DVD
- 5' interval, derived from DVRPC's 2005 orthoimagery
- Contour lines connect a series of points of equal elevation and are used to illustrate topography, or relief, on a map. They show the height of ground above Mean Sea Level (M.S.L.). Numerous contour lines that are close together indicate hilly or mountainous terrain; when far apart, they represent a gentler slope.
