Elevation represents land height, in meters, above mean sea level. The Elevation datasets were acquired from the Elevation Derivatives for National Applications (EDNA), a multi-layered database that provides systematic and consistent topographically-derived hydrologic derivatives. The filled DEM grid was created from the original elevation data by filling all of the depressions, or sinks, in the original DEM. To create this grid, an algorithm was used to loacted and fill all depressions or sinks where there was no flow from pixel to pixel. During this process, efforts were made to maintain natural sink features. The units of measurement for Elevation are meters above mean sea level.
This dataset was subset for use in the West Wide Wildfire Risk Assessment.
The data was subset by:
