The GMTED2010 product suite contains seven new raster elevation products for each of the 30-, 15-, and 7.5-arc-second spatial resolutions and incorporates the current best available global elevation data. Note: the global elevation map has been used to improve the interpolation of air temperature in the LCZ4r pak.
