Digital Cartographic Data Sets; Revised Prices

USGS Restructures Prices For Digital Map Products. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has revised prices for some digital cartographic data sets. Known as US GeoData, these data sets include digital elevation models (DEM), digital line graphs (DLG), digital raster graphics (DRG), land use and land cover data (LULC), geographic names information system data (GNIS), and black-and-white and color-infrared digital orthophoto quarter quadrangles (DOQQ). Prices for these products were last revised more than 10 years ago. Prices have been adjusted to accurately reflect and ensure recovery of the costs associated with their reproduction and distribution, and are directly proportional to file size. These changes are consistent with guidance contained in the Office of Management and Budget Circular A- 130 which permits government agencies to recover only reproduction and distribution costs from the sale of its products.
