This is a tiled collection of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) and is one meter resolution. The 3DEP data holdings serve as the elevation layer of The National Map, and provide foundational elevation information for earth science studies and mapping applications in the United States. Scientists and resource managers use 3DEP data for hydrologic modeling, resource monitoring, mapping and visualization, and many other applications. The elevations in this DEM represent the topographic bare-earth surface. USGS standard one-meter DEMs are produced exclusively from high resolution light detection and ranging (lidar) source data of one-meter or higher resolution. One-meter DEM surfaces are seamless within collection projects, but, not necessarily seamless across projects. The spatial reference used for tiles of the one-meter DEM within the conterminous United States (CONUS) is Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) in units of meters, and in conformance with the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). All bare earth elevation values are in meters and are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). Each tile is distributed in the UTM Zone in which it lies. If a tile crosses two UTM zones, it is delivered in both zones. The one-meter DEM is the highest resolution standard DEM offered in the 3DEP product suite. Other 3DEP products are nationally seamless DEMs in resolutions of 1/3, 1, and 2 arc seconds. These seamless DEMs were referred to as the National Elevation Dataset (NED) from about 2000 through 2015 at which time they became the seamless DEM layers under the 3DEP program and the NED name and system were retired. Other 3DEP products include five-meter DEMs in Alaska as well as various source datasets including the lidar point cloud and interferometric synthetic aperture radar (Ifsar) digital surface models and intensity images. All 3DEP products are public domain.

To advance the U.S. Geological Survey 3D National Topography Model (3DNTM) including the next generation of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) and the 3D Hydrography Program (3DHP), the USGS researched and created a Seamless 1-meter resolution (S1M) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the conterminous United States (CONUS). This dataset is a result of a joint project between the National Geospatial Technical Operations Center (NGTOC) and the Earth Resources Observation and Science Center (EROS) of the USGS National Geospatial Directorate (NGD). Scientists and resource managers can use the S1M data for global change research, hydrologic modeling, resource monitoring, mapping, visualization, and many other applications. A S1M DEM requires merging multiple lidar projects in which the lidar sensor, bare-earth DEM generation methodology, source resolution, datums/projection, unit of measure, and geoid (mean sea level model) can vary between projects. This tile of the Seamless 1-m DEM was created from the best available 3DEP Original Product Resolution source DEMs from one or several intersecting 3DEP data collection projects. Spatially referenced metadata are contained within an open-source GeoPackage that stores footprints for each of the input source DEMs along with source data characteristics. The source DEMs were processed to align vertically to North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (EPSG: 5703) updated to the current GEOID18 model and projected horizontally to North American Datum of 1983 (2011) USA Contiguous Albers Equal Area Conic projection (EPSG: 6350). Horizontal units and elevation values are in meters. Large data voids wider than 10 meters in the tile were backfilled with 1/9 arc-second or 1/3 arc-second DEMs in the 3DEP data repository while small data voids were interpolated across using bilinear interpolation. For tiles containing more than one 3DEP project or with large data voids, up to three blending routines were used: a simple blend, narrow blend, or a backfill blend. The spatial metadata GeoPackage contains information on where backfilling, void interpolation, and blending occurs within the tile. The tile spatial extent is 10 km x 10 km. The S1M DEM is available in a Cloud Optimized Georeferenced Tagged Image File Format (GeoTIFF). The S1M DEM has floating point numeric values and a spatial resolution of one meter. NoData values (areas where data is incomplete due to lack of full data coverage) are represented with the numeric value of -999999. Other 3DEP products are nationally seamless DEMs in resolutions of 1/3, 1, and 2 arc seconds. These seamless DEMs were referred to as the National Elevation Dataset (NED) from about 2000 through 2015 at which time they became the seamless DEM layers under the 3DEP program and the NED name and system were retired. Other 3DEP products include project-based one-meter DEMs in CONUS, five-meter DEMs in Alaska as well as various source datasets including the lidar point cloud and interferometric synthetic aperture radar (Ifsar) digital surface models and intensity images. All 3DEP products are public domain.

This is a tiled collection of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) and is 1 arc-second (approximately 30 m) resolution. The elevations in this Digital Elevation Model (DEM) represent the topographic bare-earth surface. The 3DEP data holdings serve as the elevation layer of The National Map, and provide foundational elevation information for earth science studies and mapping applications in the United States. Scientists and resource managers use 3DEP data for hydrologic modeling, resource monitoring, mapping and visualization, and many other applications. The seamless 1 arc-second DEM layers are derived from diverse source data that are processed to a common coordinate system and unit of vertical measure. These data are distributed in geographic coordinates in units of decimal degrees, and in conformance with the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). All elevation values are in meters and, over the continental United States, are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The seamless 1 arc-second DEM layer provides coverage of the conterminous United States, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, other territorial islands, and much of Alaska and Canada. The seamless 1 arc-second DEM is available as pre-staged current and historical products tiled in GeoTIFF format.

Previously created 1 degree blocks are retained in the historical folder with an appended date suffix (YYYYMMDD) when they were produced. Other 3DEP products are nationally seamless DEMs in resolutions of 1 and 1/3 arc-second.
