&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) uses a&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;laser system called &amp;lsquo;lidar&amp;rsquo; (light detection and ranging) to&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;create a virtual reality map of the Nation that is very accurate. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;3D maps have many uses with new uses being discovered all the time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
