Datasets tagged ergo in Earth Engine

  • This dataset collection provides global and US-specific geomorphological and physiographic data, including landforms, topographic diversity, and Continuous Heat-Insolation Load Index (CHILI).

  • Data is derived from ALOS and SRTM DEMs at 30m resolution, and the USGS NED DEM at 10m resolution for the US datasets.

  • The Conservation Science Partners (CSP) Ecologically Relevant Geomorphology (ERGo) datasets offer multi-scale, detailed information on landforms and physiographic features.

  • These datasets are valuable for studying biodiversity, species distribution, and habitat modeling, as well as for broader ecological and environmental applications.

  • Topographic diversity and CHILI serve as surrogate variables representing the variety of temperature, moisture conditions, and insolation effects on evapotranspiration, impacting species habitats.
