Attachment_5-_Shaded_Relief_Lidar_0001.pdf

This file is a LiDAR-generated shaded relief map created by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Rhode Island State Office and United States Geological Survey (USGS). The map shows topographical elevation data for what appears to be the Ninigret National Wildlife Refuge project area, outlined in blue. The elevation values range from -2.32 to 86.67 feet, represented through a color gradient from light blue/green (lower elevations) to red/white (higher elevations).

The map includes a north arrow, scale bar showing distances up to 2,000 feet, and legend. The terrain appears to be varied with several elevated areas shown in white and red in the central portion of the project area, surrounded by lower-lying areas in green. This topographical data visualization is likely being used to support planning for the mechanical fuel reduction treatment project described in the associated contract opportunity.
