This is a cropped DTM version (with Frame2c) for providing topographic backgrouds on EEA maps.

This is a hillshade of global digital elevation model (DEM) with a horizontal grid spacing of 30 arc seconds (approximately 1 kilometer).

Statement

The data set was compiled by EEA and is derived from the GTOPO30 dataset ( http://edcdaac.usgs.gov/gtopo30/gtopo30.html). The DTM was converted to raster (georefernced tiff) using Arcview and Grid Pig extension. The Caspian Sea border, the Africa depression and some areas from the Netherlands, all under sea level were corrected.

The DTM was hillshaded using ArcMap and Spatial Analyst using following parametres: Azimuth: 315, Altitude: 45, Model shadows: Yes, Z factor: 10, Cell size: 1000 m.
