MI Re: Gradient/slope shading

[Roeland van der Spek]

Michelle,   You can use Triangulator from Mercator Geosystems to triangulate your elevation data. The resulting map contains triangle objects with fields on the average elevation, slope in degrees and aspect. The slope information can be used for creating a thematic maps or other forms of further analysis.   A fully function trial version of Triangulator can be downloaded from www.mercatorgeo.nl   Hope this helps.
