The USGS is very pleased to announce the availability of dlgv32 Pro - a significantly enhanced and updated version of our original dlgv32 software.

dlgv32 Pro is a limited-feature version of commercial software called Global Mapper which was created from the original dlgv32 source code. Improved to address changes in data standards and to better meet customer requirements, dlgv32 Pro continues the tradition of providing quality viewing software for USGS data users. The USGS has obtained from Global Mapper a license to freely distribute this limited-feature version.

Improvements include a growing list of supported data formats and major enhancements which include:

• Auto-clip collar for DRG's

• Opens DLG-O and DEM files directly from gzipped archives
