Resource Abstract:
The Satellite View with Shaded Relief of the Conterminous United States map layer is a 100-meter resolution simulated natural-color
image of the United States, with relief shading added to accentuate terrain features. Vegetation is generally green, with
forests in darker green and grasslands or shrublands in lighter green. Areas of high reflectance, including urban areas, rock,
and dry bare soil, are shown in shades of tan and pink. Very bright areas, such as snow and ice, are light blue. The image
was produced by combining a mosaic of Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery from the Landsat 4 and Landsat 5 satellites with
shaded relief generated from 100-meter elevation data extracted from the National Elevation Dataset (NED).

purpose:
The 100-meter resolution satellite view with shaded relief data were developed to portray the ground cover of the United States
at 1:1,000,000 scale. The image is intended for visual purposes only. The original Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery data and
NED elevation data should be used for conducting analysis. No responsibility is assumed by the National Atlas of the United
States in the use of these data.
