For general use by park researchers and staff. The 30 meter DEM was resampled from a 10 meter DEM so freedom from errors is suspected to be quite high. No errors have been found to date. Aspect information appears complete for all areas of the Yellowstone National Park and many of the drainages lying outside but flowing into the park. See the source citation for a complete listing of areas.
Attribute information is complete.

The data type for this grid is floating point. The information contained in these data is dynamic and may change over time. The data are not better than the original sources from which they were derived. It is the responsibility of the data user to use the data appropriately and consistent within the limitations of geospatial data in general and these data in particular.
