We'll basically work with the Spearfish data set (Spearfish, Lawrence county, South Dakota, USA). To enrich the standard Spearfish data set, a couple of extra maps can be downloaded below.

Spearfish sample dataset

SPEARFISH 6.0 data set (20MB size) - contains raster, vector and point data of South Dakota [change history]
(UTM projection, Clarke66 ellipsoid, NAD27 conus)
