Summary

A raster dataset representing slope in the conterminous United States. This dataset was created from the radian slope raster of 100-meter spatial resolution developed by Ramcharan et al. (2018). Those data were derived from a conterminous 100-m Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the United States (http://nationalmap.gov/) using SAGA GIS software. Slope values are put into 9 slope classes to facilitate interpretation and reporting.
