The SRTM digital elevation data, produced by NASA originally,has been a major breakthrough in digital mapping of the world. It is provided in an effort to promote the use of geospatial science and applications for sustainable development and resource conservation in the developing worl ...

Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTGTM) was developed jointly by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI). ASTER is capable of collecting in-track stereo using nadir- and aft-looking near infrared cameras. ...

A new map of Travel Time to Major Cities - developed by the European Commission and the World Bank - captures this connectivity and the concentration of economic activity and also highlights that there is little wilderness left. The map shows how accessible some parts of the world have ...

The mapped variable is the age-standardised P. vivax Parasite Rate (PvPR0-99) which describes the estimated proportion of  the general population that are infected with P. vivax at any one time, averaged over the 12 months of 2010. The map also displays the limits of unstable P. v ...
