New Elevation Inventory for the Great Lakes Watershed
http://greatlakesrestoration.us/?p=838

A comprehensive inventory of elevation data sets for the Great Lakes is
now available from the NOAA Coastal Services Center.  This Topographic
and Bathymetric Data Inventory is focused on best-available datasets and
is accessed through an online, interactive viewer that displays the
extent of data, helpful information about data set quality, and a link
to download the data or a Point of Contact to access the data. The
inventory can be used to identify existing data sets or strategically
target areas for collection to fill data gaps.  The inventory includes
publicly available data from states, counties, cities, regional
governance, NOAA, USGS, USACE, and FEMA and was funded by the EPA Great
Lakes Restoration Initiative.

Explore the site at www.csc.noaa.gov/topobathy/ to find out what
elevation data is available for your area.
