Topographic Data contains data commonly used in compilation of a topographic map. Includes layers depicting physical geography such as contours, shaded relief, and slopes. Also contains "hardscape" layers depicting man-made features such as buildings and docks. The data has been symbolized and color coded with mapping parameters conveniently pre-set.
Five Foot Contours
(metadata)
Description: Topographic elevation contours at 5
foot intervals, with 25 foot index contours. Derived from 2002
photogrammetric data. Vertical accuracy is +/- 2.5 feet in
non-forested areas. City of Bellingham vertical datum. Extent of
data is a rectangular area covering the City, and Urban Growth Area.
Symbology: 25 foot index contours are symbolized
with a bold, dark brown line symbol. 5 foot supplemental contours
