ELEVATION

This postgresql adaptation of the SRTM3 v3 is made by F.P. Sluiter. The original 6000*6000 tiles are retiled to 60*60. New tiles containing only no_data values were removed. Dataset is subdivided in 27 tables that cover the globe.

Original documentation: PROCESSED SRTM DATA VERSION 3

The data distributed here are in ARC GRID, ARC ASCII and Geotiff format, in decimal degrees and datum WGS84. They are derived from the USGS/NASA SRTM data. CIAT have processed this data to provide seamless continuous topography surfaces. Areas with regions of no data in the original SRTM data have been filled in using interpolation methods. A full technical report on this method is in preparation.
