National  Elevation  Dataset (NED): 
  Nevada  Extracts 


    National Elevation Dataset (NED)
These zipped NED data files contain digital elevation model coverages for Nevada.  Extracted from the National Digital Elevation Dataset, these coverages are thirty meter resolution.  Each coverage represents a 1X1 degree block (latitude / longitude).  NED coverages are available for download in binary and grid formats, both of which may be imported into ArcView using the Spatial Analyst extension. 

  About the National Elevation Dataset (NED)
The USGS National Elevation Dataset (NED) has been developed by merging the highest-resolution, best-quality elevation data available across the United States into a seamless raster format. NED is the result of the maturation of the USGS effort to provide 1:24,000-scale Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data for the conterminous US and 1:63,360-scale DEM data for Alaska.


These National Elevation Dataset extracts were provided through the courtesy of the Nevada Division of State Lands.
