GEBCO 2024

Data originall accessed from the GEBCO website.

GEBCO’s current gridded bathymetric data set, the GEBCO_2024 Grid, is a global terrain model for ocean and land, providing elevation data, in meters, on a 15 arc-second interval grid. It is accompanied by a Type Identifier (TID) Grid that gives information on the types of source data that the GEBCO_2024 Grid is based on.

This release includes a version of the grid with under-ice topography/bathymetry information for Greenland and Antarctica.
