World Shaded Relief

Map Service Name: World_Shaded_Relief

Description: This map portrays surface elevation as shaded relief. This map is used as a basemap layer to add shaded relief to other GIS maps. It is especially useful in maps that do not contain orthoimagery. The map resolution (cell size) is as follows:

• 30 meters for the United States
• 90 meters for all land areas between 60° north and 56° south latitude
• 1 kilometer resolution above 60° north and 56° south

The map provides coverage for the world down to a scale of ~1:72k. The shaded relief imagery was developed by Esri using GTOPO30, Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), and National Elevation Data (NED) data from the USGS.
