Description

This layer portrays elevation as an artistic hillshade. The map is designed to be used as a backdrop for topographical, soil, hydro, landcover or other outdoor recreational maps. It’s a default relief background in various basemaps such as TopographicTerrain with Labels.

The map is compiled from a variety of data sources from commercial, community maps and many authoritative organizations across the globe. The basemap has global coverage down to a scale of ~1:72k. In the United States, parts of Europe, Asia and Africa coverage goes down to ~1:9k. 

To see the coverage and sources of various datasets comprising this map layer, view the Elevation Coverage Map. Additionally, this layer uses data from Maxar’s Precision 3D Digital Terrain Models for parts of the globe.

The map is based on the Multi-directional hillshade algorithm.

There is an error in the map in northern Clay County, Missouri that needs to be corrected. The error can be seen if zoomed in closer than 1:95000

Finland is listed twice in the description of coverage; I wonder if one of the two mentions of "Finland" was meant to be Sweden?
