Measured terrain around the Kenai Peninsula Borough centroid
- Centroid elevation

- m (20 ft)
- Terrain relief
- 666
- m spread (p95−p5, ~20–40 km window)
The county center sits at about 6 m above sea level. Elevation across the sampled window spreads 666 m — mountainous terrain by our banding (flat <30 m · gently rolling 30–100 m · hilly 100–300 m · mountainous >300 m). Water covers about 35% of the county's area (Census Gazetteer). These are county-scale context, not parcel measurements — a specific parcel gets its own slope, flood and usable-acreage readings when analyzed.
Elevation measured 2026-07-21 from the AWS Terrain Tiles (terrarium encoding, z10).
Data available for Kenai Peninsula Borough
- No free owner records. Alaska does not publish a free statewide parcel-and-owner dataset, so LandBenchmark cannot show who owns a parcel in Kenai Peninsula Borough. The county assessor's office is the authoritative source. Every measured signal below is unaffected.
- Legal description — township, range and section from the BLM Public Land Survey System.
- FEMA flood zones, wetlands, soil survey and NCCPI soil productivity — the federal layers, all free and all available here.
- 56 measured signals from satellite imagery and public records — slope and usable acreage, observed surface water, vegetation trend, wildfire and seismic hazard, access and neighboring land use. Each one cites its method, its source, and the date it was observed.
LandBenchmark has no listings and does not know what is for sale in Kenai Peninsula Borough. It analyses a parcel you point it at. It is an automated Phase-1 desk screen, not a survey, a flood determination, or a substitute for on-site inspection.

What can LandBenchmark measure for a parcel in Kenai Peninsula Borough?
56 measured signals, each cited with source and observation date: FEMA flood zone plus surface water observed in multi-year imagery, USFWS wetlands, USDA soil survey and productivity, slope and usable acreage, wildfire and seismic hazard, access and surroundings. What a satellite cannot verify — title, zoning, perc results, water rights — goes on a human-verify checklist naming the Kenai Peninsula Borough offices that can.
