GLOST - Global Spatial Tiles

GLOST - Global Spatial Tiles This dataset contains a collection of vector square tiles in CSV format for the entire extent of the world (except polar regions) . Usage These tiles can be used as: Catalog and indexing large spatial datasets. Automatic retrieval layer for large spaial dataset. Typical zonal statistics for GIS analysis. Scales Available The dataset is available at the following spatial resolutions: 0.25 degree: glost_00P25_0_0.csv 0.5 degree: glost_00P50_0_0.csv 1.0 degree: glost_01P00_0_0.csv 2.0 degree: glost_02P00_0_0.csv 4.0 degree: glost_04P00_0_0.csv Formatting Format: CSV (.csv) with semicolon ';' as separator and standalone read-me header.
