Post 24: Digital Raster Graphics (DRG)


A DRG is actually an image that has been copied from a map from the US Geological Survey. In short, you take a topographic map from them, scan it, and print it. This is used in many GIS or other computer programs. The map shown is of an area by the Colorado River.
