A DRG is a digital image resulting from scanning a paper USGS topographic map so that it could be used on a computer. The raster image usually includes the original border information (also known as the map collar). The map file is then UTM projected and georeferenced to the surface of the earth. These are commonly used in GIS applications, also. This particular example is a DRG of an area in West Virginia.
