Assignment 6






          These maps oversee the merging of the California Interstate 215 with the 15 directly north of Fontana and south of Hesperia.  The road cuts through the a mountain structure with the Cleghorn mountain on the upper right with the Lower Lytle Creek ridge on the bottom left.  The coordinates for this location  stretches from -117.922 to -117.133 in terms of latitude, and 34.109 to 34.547 in terms of longitude.  The datum for this map originated from the 1983 North American GCS.  The slope view shows the terrain moderately inclined in the lower left half, while relatively flat in the upper right.  The direction of the slope is torwards the north for the area east of the freeway, while the slope direction varies in the area west of the freeway.  From the observation of the 3d model, it is obvious that landscaping was necessary get the freeway to cut through the mountainous pass.
