Route 2, Glacier National Park, Montana, USA

HRTM generated at 1 meter resolution, from 10 cm USGS LiDAR (MT_GlacierNP_2016). Rendered by Global Mapper as an ecw file, which results in a file that is only 20% the size of the tiff output (126 MB vs 664 MB). The LiDAR flights were specifically designed to capture the roadway and the immediate area along it. The route stretches about 85 miles between the West Glacier and East Glacier Park Village, and parallels the historic rail line which brought visitors to the region before the roads. [Amtrak's Empire Builder](https://www.lonelyplanet.com/articles/glacier-national-park-by-train) train now passes through the park regularly. The HRTM was engineered with a cyclic color ramp repeating every 10 meters. The goal is to elaborate on the fine details of the low relief areas, while dealing with the challenges of color range in areas of high relief. This dateset provides a great opportunity to test the results. A PDF with details of the LiDAR capture is available from the [USGS](https://ftpgeoinfo.msl.mt.gov/Data/Spatial/MSDI/Elevation/Lidar/Reports/FLATHEAD_2016_GNP.pdf).
