Significant Earthquakes, Past 30 Days
Maps Made With Light Show the Way
The USGS’ National Geospatial Program is in year one of an 8-year program to create the first publicly available, national 3D elevation map using lidar. lidar shows not only vegetation and objects on the land’s surface, but the structures beneath such as fault lines.
USGS scientists sharing science at the 2016 AGU Fall Meeting
