TNRIS was the first Earth Science Information Center (ESIC) designated by the U.S. Geological Survey and, as such, serves as the primary source for USGS topographic maps covering Texas. This includes current and historical maps. USGS topographic maps highlight physical (natural) as well as cultural (man-made) surface features.

USGS Topographic Maps

Additional USGS printed maps include:

• 1:100,000 scale, 30-by-60 minute series
• 1:250,000 scale, 1-by-2 degree series
• 1:500,000 scale
• 1:1,000,000 scale

Additional Details

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service produces the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps which show information on the characteristics, extent, and status of the Nation’s wetlands and deepwater habitats.

NWI maps are the same scale as USGS topographic maps (1:24,000), cover the same area, and have the same names.
