Abstract
This line data layer represents contours for Portland Metro, Oregon in 1993. The dataset was originally published by the Metro Data Resource Center in February 2001.[Elevation lines from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute quadrangle maps. Contour interval is 10, 20 or 40 feet, depending on quad. As additional quads become available from USGS, the map extent will be expanded.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data.
Supplemental Information
Augmented original metadata with AGSL specific elements. For official metadata contact the resource Point of Contact. Also see CONTOUR.GIF.
