About Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota

Theodore Roosevelt National Park is a national park of the United States in the badlands of western North Dakota. Comprising three geographically separated areas and the only American national park named after a single person, it pays homage to the time that President Theodore Roosevelt spent in the surrounding area and in the Dakota Territories before they were states. Roosevelt lived in the area after his mother and wife died hours apart on February 14, 1884. The park covers 70,446 acres (110.1 sq mi; 285.1 km2) of land in three sections: the North Unit, the South Unit, and the Elkhorn Ranch Unit. The Little Missouri River flows through all three units, which are connected by the Maah Daah Hey Trail. The larger South Unit lies alongside Interstate 94 near Medora; the smaller North Unit is situated along U.S.

About this terrain model

Embossify Terra builds Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota from real measured elevation, not an artist's guess. In the United States the heights come from the USGS 3D Elevation Program, mostly airborne laser scans that resolve every 1 to 10 meters.

The model covers a 10 by 10 kilometer square centered on 46.9790, -103.5390. It prints 150 mm (5.9 in) wide on a solid base, a scale of about 1:66,700. The heights are exaggerated 2.5× so the shape is easy to see and feel; you can change that when you customize the model. Land below sea level is kept, so you can see how low it really is.
