DEM stands for digital elevation model.  Will be glad to send information
sheets to you that explain DEM's and DLG's. DLG is digital line graph.
Means all line data on a map other than the elevation info. Such as
roads, streams, political bound. data and other info.
 
Please give me your mailing address and we'll get this out shortly.
