Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This line shapefile shows topographic contours of Kandahar, Afghanistan at 50-meter intervals. These data were captured in 2004. This layer was mapped at 1:5,000 scale from the one meter IKONOS satellite imagery. This layer is part of the Topographic Maps of Afghanistan and Kabul dataset which contains shapefiles relating to district and provincial boundaries, land use, transportation, buildings and structures, rivers, settlements and other specific city data.
