Search the web catalog

• Click here to search the USGS topo database.
• Click here for a more complete, but more awkward two-step search.

You cannot have a blank search.

Enter your query to have the system search the online catalog database excluding the USGS topographical maps.

NOTE: If you enter multiple words, they will be either OR'ed together or AND'ed together.

Search hints:

1. Looking for Mississippi River map OR'ed together will result in a search for products which have the words Mississippi or River or map! Needless to say the word map occurs frequently so you will get a lot of results. If you select AND then the result must have Mississippi and River and map! This will be a more specific search, normally with more targeted results.

2. Use singular terms, not plural - search for map not maps

3. Search for city or region without the state/country - search for Burlington not Burlington Vermont. Many countries have thousands of listings, so searching for Germany will give 2000+ results. Searching for Frankfurt would give much more specific results.
