More details are available in the dataset [report](https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2011/1073/pdf/of2011-1073.pdf). The primary source dataset for GMTED2010 is NGA''s SRTM Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED®, [https://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/](https://science.jpl.nasa.gov/projects/srtm/)) (void-filled) 1-arc-second data. For the geographic areas outside the SRTM coverage area and to fill in remaining holes in the SRTM data, the following sources were used: non-SRTM DTED®, Canadian Digital Elevation Data (CDED) at two resolutions, Satellite Pour l''Observation de la Terre (SPOT 5) Reference3D, National Elevation Dataset (NED) for the continental United States and Alaska, GEODATA 9 second digital elevation model (DEM) for Australia, an Antarctica satellite radar and laser altimeter DEM, and a Greenland satellite radar altimeter DEM. This dataset replaces the GTOPO30 Elevation Model. ### Bands **Bands** Pixel size: 231.92 meters (all bands) | Name | Units | Pixel Size | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `std` | m | 231.92 meters | Standard Deviation | | `min` | m | 231.92 meters | Minimum | | `med` | m | 231.92 meters | Median | | `mea` | m | 231.92 meters | Mean | | `max` | m | 231.92 meters | Maximum | | `dsc` | m | 231.92 meters | Sample | | `be75` | m | 231.92 meters | Breakline emphasis maintains the critical topographic features (streams or ridges) within the landscape by maintaining any minimum elevation or maximum elevation value on a breakline that passes within the specified analysis window. | ### Terms of Use **Terms of Use** Most U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) information resides in the public domain and may be used without restriction.
