摘要:The Global Land One-kilometer Base Elevation (GLOBE) digital elevation model is the most thoroughly designed,reviewed, and documented global digital elevation dataset to date. GLOBE was developed by an international group ofspecialists, cooperating with the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) Working Group on InformationSystems and Services (WGISS), International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme's Data and Information System (IGBPDIS),and IGBP Working Group IV/6. GLOBE comprises a global 30 arc-second latitude-longitude array, with land areaspopulated with integer elevation data. GLOBE is available on the World Wide Web, and on CD-ROM in a formatconvenient for image processing and raster geographic information systems (GIS). Full GLOBE documentation isavailable on the CD-ROM and Website (http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/seg/topo/globe.html). This paper summarizes somefindings made during GLOBE's development
