| LAND TOPOGRAPHY |

|
Our worldwide Land Topography map is coloured-by-height and hill-shaded in a traditional topographic colour scheme. With a pixel size of 1km, large sand dunes can be seen in the Sahara, Arabian and Gobi Deserts. Optional overlay layers show rivers, lakes and areas of permanent snow and ice cover. Our unique rivers layer shows rivers tapering in strength along their length based on hydrological analysis of their drainage area.
