GEBCO 2019 Elevation Grid in GeoTIFF COG (cloud optimized) format

GEBCO’s (General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans) gridded bathymetric data set, the GEBCO_2019 Grid, is a global terrain model for ocean and land, providing elevation data, in meters, on a 15 arc-second interval grid.


The GEBCO 2019 grid is reformatted as a Cloud Optimised GeoTIFF suitable for online requests and republished for use primarily by software development.


Original GEBCO grid was obtained from https://www.gebco.net/data_and_products/gridded_bathymetry_data/gebco_2019/gebco_2019_info.html
