This dataset represents aspect, the horizontal direction the mountain slope faces, for the Northeast, including Canada. The cool aspect represents the North-facing slope and the warm aspect represents the South-facing slope. This dataset is derived from the following source: 30 meter Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the Northeast (projected to NAD Albers 83) that was created by mosaicing two datasets: 1. U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) 30 meter National Elevation Dataset (NED) , ~1 arc-second data that is updated over large areas by integrating the 10 meter or better source data (where available), re-sampled to 1 arc-second. 2. The Canadian Digital Elevation Data, Level 1 (CDED1) The Center of Topographic Information...

This dataset represents slope in degrees for the Northeast region, including Canada. Slope is a measure of change in elevation. This dataset is derived from the following source: 30 meter Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the Northeast (projected to NAD 83 Albers) that was created by mosaicking two datasets: 1. U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) 30 meter National Elevation Dataset (NED), ~1 arc-second data that is updated over large areas by integrating the 10 meter or better source data (where available), re-sampled to 1 arc-second. 2. The Canadian Digital Elevation Data, Level 1 (CDED1) The Center of Topographic Information (CTI) jointly produces the CDED with federal, provincial, and territorial government agencies...
