We're more than maps; just ask...
- Maps and
charts?
- USGS produces topographic maps, topographic-bathymetric maps,
Antarctic maps, photoimage maps, satellite image maps, geologic maps,
hydrologic maps, land use maps, maps of the planets and moons, National Atlas
maps, and special maps. In many cases, you can walk into the co-located interpretive
association stores, find your maps, pay your money, and leave with your maps.
If they don't stock your maps, we can tell you where to go to find them or
pass on your order. We may direct you to one of the other Information Services offices across
the United States or to one of the 3,000 or so authorized map
dealers.
- Digital cartographic
data?
- Yes, we have them. Much of the mapping information we have is being
converted to digital form. If the digits are in our data bases, we can provide
them to you.
- Earth science books and
reports?
- Yes, we have them. Many can be purchased from the interpretive
association stores, ordered online
through the USGS Store, or downloaded for free from the USGS
Publications Warehouse.
- Satellite
images?
- Yes, we have them. Many of them are located at our Center for Earth Resources Observation and Science
(EROS) in
South Dakota.
- Earth science data
bases?
- Yes, we maintain several major information and retrieval data bases. Your
question initiates our inquiry into the data bases for information you can use.
