   The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has been the primary civilian mapping agency of the United States since 1879. Some of the most well-known USGS maps are the 1:24,000-scale topographic maps, also called 7.5-minute quadrangles .

   In addition to the 1:24,000-scale maps, complete topographic coverage of the United States is available at scales of 1:100,000 and 1:250,000. Maps are also available at various other scales. The amount of detail shown on a map is proportionate to the scale of the map: the larger the map scale, the more detail shown.

   7.5-Minute Topo. 7.5-Minute Topos closely resemble historical 7.5-minute USGS map products as well as US Topo maps.. This large-scale map type provides a high level of detail over approximately 50 to 70 square miles per map and can be used for recreation and navigation (orienteering and geocaching), city planning, search and rescue, science studies such as geologic and geographic field work ...

   Draw or select a line across the topographic map through a region of interest to you (e.g., through a hill) that you will use to draw your topographic profile. In Figure 6.11 the line is labelled A-B. Draw a parallel line the length of this line horizontally near the top of the blank paper. This is the x-axis of your profile.

   How do you draw a topographic map?

   • Include one elevation line below the lowest contour, and one above the highest. Unless you are told otherwise, draw the elevation lines at the same scale as the map. E.g., If the topographic map has a scale of 1:100,000, then use a scale of 1 cm per 10 m. Align your page with the x-axis parallel to the line on the topographic map.

   What is US Topo?

   • US Topo is the current USGS topographic map series for the Nation. These are modeled on the legacy 7.5-minute maps, but are mass-produced from GIS databases of The National Map and published as digital documents. Please visit US Topo: Maps for America for full details. US Topo map production is transitioning away from a static 3-year refresh cycle.

   How to build a USGS topographic map?

   • The online application is called topoBuilder and the output maps are known as OnDemand Topos. Build a USGS topographic map with choice of format, area of interest, scale, and National Map content. US Topo maps, OnDemand Topo maps, and the Historical Topographic Map Collection (HTMC) are produced by the National Geospatial Program.

   Which cartographic products are available from the USGS?

   • Topographic maps are not the only cartographic products available from the USGS. The USGS publishes and distributes a variety of special-purpose maps. Some of these are topographic-bathymetric maps, photo image maps, satellite image maps, geologic maps, land use and land cover maps, and hydrologic maps.
