These DEM data were downloaded from the USGS web site http://edcwww.cr.usgs.gov/doc/edchome/ndcdb/7_min_dem/states/NJ.html. Originally the data were in SDTS (Spatial Data Transfer Standard) format, but I converted them into USGS DEM file format so that people can download and use them right away with many of the GIS software packages including ArcView with Spatial Analyst extension. I created and indexed a few metadata for this data and made them searchable through FGDC Clearinghouse Node. Request: I am making hyperlinks to various free spatial data centers from our site. So far I have managed to link a few libraries and centers. My goal is to link at least one spatial data center for each state - if possible, I wanted to create links to free spatial data centers outside the United States. I would like to request that those libraries or state agencies (if they are not linked to our page http://www.princeton.edu/~geolib/gis/internet.html) to share their URL's with me so that I can make them visible to our part of the world. I do not want to reinvent the wheel. Thanks.
