Global Mountains K3
收藏资源简介:
A new, high-resolution (250 m) map of global mountains derived from terrain characteristics. This new 250-m resource documents a larger global mountain extent than previous characterizations, although it excludes plateaus, hilly forelands, and other landforms that are often considered part of mountain areas. This resource was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in partnership with Esri, the Center for Development and Environment of the University of Bern (CDE), the Global Mountain Biodiversity Assessment (GMBA), and the Mountain Research Initiative (MRI).
一款基于地形特征构建的新型高分辨率(250米)全球山地地图。该250米分辨率数据集所记录的全球山地覆盖范围,较以往的山地特征表征成果更广,但未纳入高原、丘陵前缘带以及其他常被归类为山地的地貌类型。本数据集由美国地质调查局(U.S. Geological Survey, USGS)联合Esri、伯尔尼大学发展与环境中心(Center for Development and Environment of the University of Bern, CDE)、全球山地生物多样性评估(Global Mountain Biodiversity Assessment, GMBA)以及山地研究倡议(Mountain Research Initiative, MRI)共同开发完成。
