Oneida County Contours

The Oneida County contours were created using the FEMA Oneida Subbasin, Oneida 2008 & Mohawk 2007 LiDAR Collections.
The Oneida 2008 & Mohawk 2007 portions of contours were generated using Global Mapper Generate Contours tool and running against the bare earth digital elevation model. Contours are stored within a File Geodatabase by town, each town has several contour intervals the end-user can choose from including 2ft, 10ft, 20ft, 50ft, 100ft, 250ft, and 500ft with a scale triggered layer file.
The FEMA - Oneida Subbasin 2016/2017 contours were delivered as individual tiles, to make the contours more useable and distributable the GIS Program Office merged the tiles by town and clipped them to a 200ft buffer of the town. The contours were then imported into a file Geodatabase where they are stored by town and have several contour intervals the end-user can choose from including 1ft, 2ft, 10ft, 20ft, 50ft, 100ft, 250ft, and 500ft with a scale triggered layer file.
