• Shaded Relief
Shaded relief becomes visible at data zoom level 6-0 or greater. It simulates
the effect of sun shining on terrain features and casting shadows, providing
greater depth perception of the image. Lighter shades of gray indicate gentle
terrain and darker shades indicate steep terrain. Using shaded relief may slow
down the draw time of the map screen as you pan.
• Contours
Contour lines are available at data zoom level 6-0 or greater. Contour lines
show the elevation of the land in feet or meters. The closer the contour lines,
the greater the slope. The distance between the lines is the contour interval,
which is indicated in the Control Panel ( distance units are controlled in the
Options dialog box).
• Land Cover
Land cover colors are available at all data zoom levels. Colors indicate
vegetation and land cover areas on the map such as rock and sand, forests,
transitional areas, and wetlands.
• Grids
The Grids option can be used to identify coordinate points on the map. Grid
lines automatically adjust for the data zoom level of your map.
• Parks or Reserves
Parks and Reserves are available at data zoom level 7-0 or greater and
include areas such as parks, preserves, recreational area and public forests.
• Publicly Managed Lands
Publicly Managed Lands are only available when the Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) dataset is downloaded and installed. The feature includes
areas such as lands managed through the Bureau of Land Management and

Wildlife Management Units are only available when the Wildlife Management
Units (WMU) dataset is downloaded and installed. The feature includes areas
of managed wildlife and game and displays at data zoom level 6-0 or greater.
