Thought I’d share this for Civic Hacking, it’s a really cool laser-cut topo map

Pretty sure I’ve seen people working on something similar lately - although it may not have been a real map per se.

This was happening last week. It’s some pretty epic shit if you ask me.

If anybody is curious, you can get topo and bathymetry information from TNRIS and TWDB.

Topo:

You have to drill down to the location you want to get the appropriate data set.

Bathymetry:

wow that’s awesome! We need one to hang out in the halls.

That’s a picture of me finishing up my dad’s Christmas present which is a topography map of the area around his lake house. The contours were pulled from the USGS maps. Thanks for the shout out Luke!
