On Demand, Custom, Topographic Maps with topoBuilder
Alexander Kaufman, U.S. Geological Survey
The U.S. Geological Survey’s National Geospatial Program has released the topoBuilder application, which enables users to create topographic maps on demand using the best available National Map data. In topoBuilder, users can generate topographic maps, called OnDemand Topo, centered anywhere in the United States or Territories, with customized contour smoothing, and export formats GeoTIFF or GeospatialPDF. Maps are made at 1:24,000-scale for the conterminous United States and Hawaii, 1:20,000-scale for U.S. territories, and 1:25,000 for Alaska. Future releases are planned for additional customizations such as user-selected layers, user-added content, GIS data exports, and other map scales.
This presentation was made at the 2022 annual meeting of the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS). For more information on NACIS, check out NACIS.org.
