The viewer was made seamless by incorporating GDAL. In addition to matching the Topozone URL's, the website offers free download of GeoTIFFs, which Topozone had only offered for a premium. TopoQuest started adding Canadian 1:50K scale topographic maps in July 2008, and USGS 1:100K and 1:250K scale topographic maps in March 2009.
The purpose of the effort is to provide "...a seamless, continuously maintained set of public domain geographic base information that will serve as a foundation for integrating, sharing, and using other data easily and consistently". [2] The National Map is part of the USGS National Geospatial Program. [3]
The NED dataset is a compilation of data from a variety of existing high-precision datasets such as LiDAR data (see also National LIDAR Dataset - USA), contour maps, USGS DEM collection, SRTM and other sources which were reorganized and combined into a seamless dataset, designed to cover all the United States territory in its continuity.
The USGS Coastal and Marine Science Center (formerly the USGS Center for Coastal Geology) has three sites, one for the Atlantic Ocean (located in Woods Hole, Massachusetts), one for the Pacific Ocean (located in Santa Cruz, California) and one for the Gulf of Mexico (located on the University of South Florida's St. Petersburg campus). The goal ...
MrSID (pronounced Mister Sid) is an acronym that stands for multiresolution seamless image database.It is a file format (filename extension.sid) developed and patented [2] [3] by LizardTech (in October 2018 absorbed into Extensis) [4] for encoding of georeferenced raster graphics, such as orthophotos.

Information included in the Atlas includes accurate, seamless maps, documentation, and geospatial data that crosses political borders. This data is displayed as series of interactive map layers in an easy to use map viewer format. Most layers in the North American Environmental Atlas are at a scale of 1:1:10,000,000 or finer.

In 1995 the USGS was in need of a Windows viewer for their data products, so they developed the dlgv32 application for viewing their DLG (Digital Line Graph) vector data products. Between 1995 and 1998 the dlgv32 application was expanded to include support for viewing other USGS data products, including DRG (topographic maps) and DEM (digital ...
