Cupertino,CA Hi, Some time ago someone made a collection of Digital Elevation Maps availible to the net, I spend about 8 hours copying the maps over a S L O W net and much to my dismay, the files were copied incorrectly. If anyone else out therer in net land has copies of DEMs from the USGS (in either the DEM format or the older tape format) please E-mail me I would like to get them restored. My understanding is that though the data is sold by the USGS($75/per 7.5 minute quadrangle) that it is not copyrighted. (If this is an incorrect understanding, save the flames for someone who deserves it.) If the original poster is still out there: Can you tell us where the maps went? Does anyone else have maps of this type. If I get enough info I will post a list of who has what and where. Thanx, Brian Hurley bldrnr@apple.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- / --/--bldrnr--> Apple Computer Inc. 10500 N.
