Process_Description:
This data set was prepared by scanning the USGS 1:24.000 topographic quads. A company in Jackson, MI scanned and prepared the topographic 10 foot contours. MSU's Center for Remote Sensing and GIS created the DEM from the contours. This DEM was prepared with 30 foot grids. KBS GIS lab reprojected it from State Plane to UTM.
