DRG Map

http://infoecho.net/cschin/topo3d/
A DRG map, which stands for Digital Raster Graphics Map, is basically just a USGS topographical map that has been made into a digital image by scanning it onto a computer.  These maps measure relief/elevation by using contour lines and the map above is an example of DRG map from Yosemite Valley.
