Most Complete Topographic Map of Earth, GM International http://www.gim-international.com/news/id3889-Most_Complete_Topographic_Map_of_Earth.html "NASA and Japan released a new digital topographic map of Earth Monday that covers more of our planet than ever before. The map was produced with detailed measurements from NASA's Terra spacecraft. The new global digital elevation model of Earth was created from nearly 1.3 million individual stereo-pair images collected by the Japanese Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer, or ASTER, instrument aboard Terra. NASA and Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), developed the data set. It is available online to users everywhere at no cost."
