Harnett County elevation and terrain tools
Sandhills • County seat: Lillington
Harnett County straddles the fall line, where the Cape Fear River cuts through rapids and bluffs at Raven Rock below Lillington. West of the river the ground rises into the longleaf sandhills, while the east and south flatten into coastal plain along the Upper and Lower Little rivers and Mingo Swamp.
Open the mapLidar coverage
Lidar projects that cover Lillington, from the USGS 3DEP index. Other parts of the county may come from other projects; the coverage guide explains how to check any spot.
No lidar project is recorded at Lillington; the map falls back to the coarser 3DEP elevation model there.
Property boundaries
The Property tool can select parcels in Harnett County from the county assessor’s GIS parcels (NC OneMap statewide parcels (county assessors)) and use the boundary as the area for any other tool. Assessor parcels are not surveys.
