TopoView (from USGS)
Maps included are from the USGS’s US Topo series and earlier Historical Topographic Map Collection (HTMC). These maps are modeled on the familiar 7.5-minute quadrangle maps of the period 1947-1992, but are mass-produced from national GIS databases on a repeating cycle. US Topo maps repackage geographic information system (GIS) data in traditional map form. Depending on location chosen to review, maps may have been produced very recently (e.g., 2019). Formats of maps include GeoPDF, GeoTIFF, JPEG, and KMZ.
