The most detailed topographic map of Albuquerque.

Locate, create and collaborate on high-resolution topographic maps using Equator.

Albuquerque topographic maps are used by infrastructure design professionals such as:

• Flood Analysts
• Planners
• Construction Professionals
• Architects
• Civil Engineers
• Landscape Designers

The Albuquerque topographic map can be used for a variety of tasks, including:

• Cutting cross sections on the fly
• Viewing 3D surfaces from built-in LiDAR
• Extracting elevation data
• Generating contours
• Creating markups, labels and figures
• Sourcing and view LiDAR point clouds
• Link sharing data

Equator’s data is sourced from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and their 3D Elevation Program (3DEP). You can read more about the 3DEP here.

Albuquerque elevation data is sourced from a library of airborne LiDAR surveys and is connected to Equator for ease of access.

Contours can be extracted from the Albuquerque topographic map at the resolution of your choosing.

Contours can be exported to a variety of formats including shapefile (.shp) and drawing (.dxf).

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are also available.

Contours can be opened in AutoDesk Civil3D (or similar) simply by opening an dxf file or shapefile exported from Equator. This tutorial explains how to create a 3D surface in Civil 3D directly from a shapefile.

Equator allows users to access local LiDAR surveys to the best available resolution.  Experience 3D topography in high-resolution, unlike ever before.
