Supplemental Information

The Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys(DGGS) created hillshade images from bare-earth digital elevation models that were created by Watershed Sciences. This metadata file was written to document and describe, as a whole, all the lidar hillshade image files generated for this project. Metadata files, created by DGGS, are also included with each data download and may include additional useful information that is specific to each individual file. For each lidar data delivery area, reports documenting data collection methodology, accuracy, and quality control were provided by Watershed Sciences and the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI). The reports may provide useful information when using hillshade images. These reports have been combined into single comprehensive reports organized by delivery region. The lidar QC report (the comprehensive report from DOGAMI) and the lidar delivery report (the comprehensive report from Watershed Sciences) can be found at >. Information about the quadrangles included in individual delivery regions can be found in the lidar delivery index report included with the data download. The DGGS metadata standard extends the FGDC standard to include several elements that are required to facilitate internal data management. This dataset is described as a single layer titled:

Metadata

Metadata is the data about the data and answers "Who, what, when, where, how and why?" about the dataset. Please see the DGGS Metadata README page for information about our metadata.
