The National Map

As one of the cornerstones of the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) National Geospatial Program, The National Map is a collaborative effort among the USGS and other Federal, State, and local partners to improve and deliver topographic information for the Nation. It has many uses ranging from recreation to scientific analysis to emergency response. The National Map is easily accessible for display on the Web, as products and services, and as downloadable data. The geographic information available from The National Map includes orthoimagery (aerial photographs), elevation, geographic names, hydrography, boundaries, transportation, structures, and land cover.

USGS National Structures Dataset - USGS National Map Downloadable Data Collection

USGS Structures from The National Map (TNM) consists of data to include the name, function, location, and other core information and characteristics of selected manmade facilities across all US states and territories. The types of structures collected are largely determined by the needs of disaster planning and emergency response, and homeland security organizations. Structures currently included are: School, School:Elementary, School:Middle, School:High, College/University, Technical/Trade School, Ambulance Service, Fire Station/EMS Station, Law Enforcement, Prison/Correctional Facility, Post Office, Hospital/Medical Center, Cabin, Campground, Cemetery, Historic Site/Point of Interest, Picnic Area, Trailhead, Vistor/Information...

USGS National Map Corps VGI Structures Acquisition Plan Objectives for FY17 from The National Map - National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) USGS National Structures Dataset

U.S. Geological Survey, Department of the Interior - The annual National Map Corps Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) structures acquisition plan is to add new structures data and remove or edit obsolete structures data points over the United States. The FY17 acquisition plan allows data contributions by volunteers for all 50 states. Interested parties who wish to become a volunteer data acquisition partner with the USGS in FY17 or in future years should contact a USGS Geospatial Liaison - http://liaisons.usgs.gov/geospatial/documents/TNM_Partnership_User_ContactList.pdf. To find out more about the National Map Corps VGI structures program go to https://my.usgs.gov/confluence/display/nationalmapcorps/Home.
