This is the same NED data except in Grid float format. These files are twice as big as the BIL format. They will run a bit slower for generating network backgrounds.


Downloading

The files are named by the North West corner having the following syntax:

 NXXWYYY.zip
  
 where XX = the latiude in degrees and YYY = longitude in degrees 

The files are available in two resolutions:

1" GridFloat files (covers North America):

1/3" GridFloat files (covers the USA):
