Abstract

U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Mapping
Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Author(s): Helmut Lestinsky, Mike Cooley

In the early 1990s, the Primary Series Topographic Quadrangle mapping was completed. The organization is now preparing to produce updates to its cornerstone product-the 7.5 minute topographic map series-from data contained in The National Map. USGS is working on product and standards development, data assessment and translation, generalization, integration, quality assurance, data management and delivery, and contract management. We will discuss how the public will obtain maps as a digital file or by print-on-demand using a web-enabled, user-controlled production process.
