Some maps help you find your way. Others help you see the world differently. πŸ—ΊοΈπŸŽ¨ Our 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) captures the shape of the land through high-resolution elevation data. Through our 3DEP as Art series, we transform these scientific datasets into visual representations of elevation, revealing the ridges, valleys, and slopes that shape the terrain. Created from bare-earth elevation data, these maps remove vegetation and structures to showcase the underlying terrain in a new way. This data supports a wide range of applications, including mapping, natural resource management, hazard assessment, scientific research, and informed decision-making. They demonstrate how science, technology, and creativity can come together to provide new ways to explore and understand our surroundings. Science provides the data. Art reveals the landscape.
