U.S. Navy 10-Minute Global Elevation and Geographic Characteristics

This free dataset, compiled by the U.S. Navy Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center (with data help from NCAR), contains global elevation data at 10-minute resolution. Each 10-minute by 10-minute area contains modal, maximum and minimum elevations, orientation of ridges, terrain characteristics, and urban development. These data are current as of December 1984.
