Please provide as much detail as possible. Contact our Support Team. Export a map to PDF format and note the export file's location on disk.
PDF files exported from ArcMap can include advanced functionality in addition to their usage as a graphic interchange format. PDF files can contain layers from the ArcMap table of contents so that users can enable and disable the visibility of layers and graphic elements on the PDF page.
PDF files exported from ArcMap can also include attributes for GIS features as well as georeference information for each map data frame. Anyone viewing the PDF document in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat can use the Acrobat Analysis tools to inspect feature attributes and look up and identify geographic coordinates.
The following sections contain information about these advanced features and their usage. Most ArcMap table of contents layers, data frames, and layout elements will be included as separate layers in the export. However, certain types of symbology may affect the presentation of a layer in the finished PDF.
The visibility of fields in the feature's attribute table determines what fields will be exported in the resulting PDF. To turn these fields on and off, go to the Fields tab of the Layer Properties dialog box.
The check boxes determine the visibility of the given field. Check or uncheck the check boxes to expose more or fewer attributes in the resultant PDF.
Alternatively, the visibility of the fields can be controlled in the Table window by right-clicking the column heading and choosing the Turn Field Off option:. Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader versions 9 and later allow viewing of map coordinates and georeference information encoded inside the PDF file. All topographic maps produced by the U. Geological Survey USGS are in the public domain and are not copyrighted except for the following three cases that apply only to US Topo maps produced present : Most maps in the period contain commercially licensed road data see note below.
Orthoimages in Alaska are commercially licensed How accurate are US Topo maps, and why don't they have an accuracy statement? US Topo maps are as accurate as the data sources used to make them, but because these sources are many and varied, it is not possible to make a single simple statement that the map as a whole meets a particular level of accuracy.
US Topo maps, therefore, do not have a traditional accuracy statement in the map collar. Accuracy information for Can I still get the older topographic maps?
Topographic maps originally published as paper documents between have been scanned and published as the USGS Historical Topographic Map Collection.
Historically, USGS topographic maps were made using data from primary sources including direct field observations. Those maps were compiled, drawn, and edited by hand. By today's standards, those traditional methods are very expensive and time-consuming, and the USGS no longer has funding to make maps that way. A new USGS topographic map series Bulk delivery is available for maps from the US Topo collection produced present and the Historical Topographic Map Collection produced In bulk delivery requests, please specify which of these two product series you want.
Only current US Topo maps not superseded maps are available for bulk distribution use topoView to Filter Total Items: 7. Fishburn, Kristin A. Attribution: National Geospatial Program. View Citation.

Geological Survey. That's a simple elevation map. You just need to find a DEM digital elevation model of the area, typically a raster, classify it with the same ranges and symbolize them with similar colors, clip it, possibly convert to polygons kind of depends on the analysis you want to do with it. That one is easy.
Something else, like flood risk you mention 'hazard maps' would be more difficult since an unknown analysis might go into making it. Maybe they have data to download?
It is just a pdf report with a lot of maps with no link to data. Here is one such hazard zonation map drive. Show 1 more comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer.

Also, most pdfs don't store any location information so you'd basically be scaling and georeferencing spatial adjustment the vector lines.
