The second-draft 6-foot 2010 supermosaic!        and with shaded relief!     And fixed!

This differs from the first draft by the addition of data is Lewis, Gray's Harbor and Wahkiakum Counties, south of the Puget Sound basin.

The January 27, 2011 version fixes a serious problem with the July version. A strangely inappropriate (smoothed data used to fill pinholes?) version of the Snohomish 2005-6 data had been used in July, and so it was overwritten.

A filegeodatebase is a directory with many (84 in this case) files of various sizes. Some of these files are larger than 4 gigabytes, and will break the compression program. Therefore you must

You will need ArcMap 9.3 or equivalent software to use it. This does not comprise all the PSLC holdings, but is cut off at the Cascade Crest and arbitrarily around the bottom of Lewis County. Aside from having 6-foot postings (matching the resolution of most of the component dta sets), it should be a minor improvement over the March 10, 2010 30-foot filegeodatabase. A better (I hope) rasterization of the King County data in coming soon, and this supermosaic will be updated. I am not aware of new lidar aquisitions in the pipeline. Components, from highest precedence to lowest are:
A map version of this table is coming soon.
