Hello Jason,
Thank you for your inquiry. The single .tar.gz file contains the SDTS version of the four .opt.gz files. The .opt.gz files are DLGs in the native (optional) format. If your software does not show the datum you can use the search capabilities of Earth Explorer ( http://earthexplorer.usgs.gov ) to find datum information or you can download our free viewer from
http://mcmcweb.er.usgs.gov/viewers
The viewer is particularly handy because you can check datasets quickly for possible problems. A commercial version of the viewer is available from
http://www.globalmapper.com/
Please contact us again if you have additional questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth McCartney USGS Earth Science Information Center 1400 Independence Road Rolla, Missouri 65401

Subject: GISList: Help! Hypsography data files... 11/21/2001

I have not been able to figure out or find information on what the additional *.gz files are that you can download with 100K hypsography DLG files.
Example: I'm downloading 100K hypsography data from geocomm for Jefferson County in Colorado. The data is contained in a file called DN3.HYPSO.SDTS.TAR.GZ. There are also four other files available for download: DN3.HPF03.OPT.GZ, DN3.HPF04.OPT.GZ, DN3.HPF07.OPT.GZ and DN3.HPF08.OPT.GZ.
What are these for?
Jason L.
P.S. does anyone know what datum these file use or how I can tell?
