Summary

[edit]
Description

This is an elevation profile of New York State Route 52. The GIS data used was U.S. Census TIGER/Line data (for the road) and USGS Digital Elevation Model data.

  • The image is not in SVG because ArcMap cannot export an elevation profile as SVG.
  • There is no horizontal scale because the TIGER/Line data does not show every small curve, and so the length in the data is shorter than the actual length. The actual length of NY 52 is 108.72 mi (174.97 km).
  • The blue line shows the overlap with Interstate 84, including the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, which is different from the terrain (red) due to cuts, fills, and bridges.
  • The red line shows the terrain, which normally matches the road, but there are exceptions. For instance, the dip east of Ellenville is bridged by NY 52.
