Hi Carl,

Is it possible that you are just encountering the edges of the subdataset?

That URL you provided in your first email had the list of indexes for the
collection of data sets, maybe you can cross reference the shapes it was
showing with the edges you are getting, to see if you need to switch to a
different product when you are in certain areas:

http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?url=https%3A%2F%2Findex.nationalmap.gov%2Farcgis%2Frest%2Fservices%2F3DEPElevationIndex%2FMapServer&source=sd
