Description
Low-resolution terrain covering most of the North American continent, plus Hawaii. This map uses a combination of European Space Agency Worldcover data plus USGS National Landcover Database data for locations inside the United States. The horizontal resolution of this map is 38 meters (about 125 feet) so its practical uses may be somewhat limited.
Note: This map is a two-dimensional version of the North America 3d Terrain map.
