  3. 2
    + Communities of Use: Objective
     Provide an efficient, ‘one-stop shopping’ approach to secure GIS-
    ready map data configured to US Topo layout and cartographic
    specifications
     Originated with Geologic Mapping Community Of Use (COU)
    (2011 time frame); Applicable to
     Geologic Mapping and Geologic Hazards (GMH) COU
     Natural Resources Conservation (NRC) COU
     Water Resources COU
     USGS scientists
     Private industry

  4. 3
    + Topo TNM Style Template: Description
     Delivered as a zip file via TNM Web Site (BETA)
     ArcMap MXD
     US Topo cartographic specifications
     Layout, labeling, and symbology
     Service links for imagery and shaded relief layers
     Ancillary Data and Files
     Tailoring Instructions
     Publicly available MGRS data for representing US National
    Grid and Zone Designations in marginalia
     NGTOC-produced table containing data for manually tailoring
    the map layout
     To best emulate the US Topo Map:
     Download Topo Combined Vector Product and use shaded
    relief and imagery services from TNM Viewer
     Use the single template for any 7.5-minute Area of Interest

     Improve label placement and MXD performance
     Evaluation of multi-scale data, generalization, and cartographic
    designs
     Evaluate extension of current production system
     Evaluation of Esri Product On Demand (POD) server technology to
    extend export of tailored products
     Formats; Esri map packet and other formats (e.g. GeoTIFF)
     Additional product scales and AOIs
     Evaluate OGC GeoPackage
