This historical dataset is recommended for ancillary use only and not as a primary research dataset. It has likely been superseded by a newer, improved dataset.
Abstract:
Five arc-minute resolution global ocean depth and land surface elevation. Developed from multiple data sources and compiled at the US National Geophysical Data Center. Compared to the predecessor data set, ETOPO5, TerrainBase is mostly improved in land elevations areas, few changes were made to ocean depths.
Variables:
| Seafloor Topography | Terrain Elevation |
Vertical Levels:
| Ground or water surface |
