Either individual DEMs or small subsets can be accessed through this service. Function: Online function code: search Role: Role code: publisher Abstract: The DEM Global Mosaic is an image service providing a global, seamless bathymetry/topography mosaic that includes NCEI's ETOPO 2022, NCEI's Continuously Updated DEM (CUDEM), and other NCEI-stewarded DEMs, along with regional grids such as IBCAO, IBCSO and the Hawaiian Island Multibeam Synthesis (University of Hawaii). This service provides elevation/depth values in meters; for a visualization of the data, please see the related DEM Global Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief) service. There are 5 related image services providing access to Digital Elevation Models: DEM Mosaic (Individual DEMs), DEM Global Mosaic (Elevation Values), DEM Global Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief), CUDEM Mosaic (Elevation Values), and CUDEM Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief). NCEI builds and distributes high-resolution, coastal digital elevation models (DEMs) that integrate ocean bathymetry and land topography to support NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in Earth's environment, and conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental needs. They can be used for modeling of coastal processes (tsunami inundation, storm surge, sea-level rise, contaminant dispersal, etc.), ecosystems management and habitat research, coastal and marine spatial planning, and hazard mitigation and community preparedness. This service is a general-purpose global, seamless bathymetry/topography mosaic. It combines DEMs from a variety of near sea-level vertical datums, such as mean high water (MHW), mean sea level (MSL), and North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). No conversion/harmonization of vertical datums was performed. Because the mosaic contains 'overviews' for performance, individual DEMs cannot be separated from the others. Individual DEMs, or smaller subsets, are available in the companion DEM Mosaic (Individual DEMs) image service. By default, the DEMs are drawn in order of cell size, with higher-resolution grids displayed on top of lower-resolution grids. If overlapping DEMs have the same resolution, the newer one is shown. Please see NCEI's corresponding DEM Footprints feature service for polygon footprints and more information about the individual DEMs used to create this composite view.

Function: Online function code: search Role: Role code: publisher Abstract: A map service showing the location and coverage of land and seafloor digital elevation models (DEMs) available from NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI). NCEI builds and distributes high-resolution, coastal digital elevation models (DEMs) that integrate ocean bathymetry and land topography to support NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in Earth's environment, and conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental needs. They can be used for modeling of coastal processes (tsunami inundation, storm surge, sea-level rise, contaminant dispersal, etc.), ecosystems management and habitat research, coastal and marine spatial planning, and hazard mitigation and community preparedness. Layers available in the map service: Layers 1-4: DEMs by Category (includes various DEMs, both hosted at NCEI, and elsewhere on the web); Layers 6-11: NCEI DEM Projects (DEMs hosted at NCEI, color-coded by project); Layer 12: All NCEI Bathymetry DEMs (All bathymetry or bathy-topo DEMs hosted at NCEI).

NCEI builds and distributes high-resolution, coastal digital elevation models (DEMs) that integrate ocean bathymetry and land topography to support NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in Earth's environment, and conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental needs. They can be used for modeling of coastal processes (tsunami inundation, storm surge, sea-level rise, contaminant dispersal, etc.), ecosystems management and habitat research, coastal and marine spatial planning, and hazard mitigation and community preparedness. This service provides data from many individual DEMs combined together as a mosaic. By default, the rasters are drawn in order of cell size, with higher-resolution grids displayed on top of lower-resolution grids. If overlapping DEMs have the same resolution, the newer one is shown. Alternatively, a single DEM or group of DEMs can be isolated using a filter/definition query or using the "Lock Raster" mosaic method in ArcMap. This is one of three services displaying collections of DEMs that are referenced to common vertical datums: North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88): http://noaa.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=e9ba2e7afb7d46cd878b34aa3bfce042, Mean High Water (MHW): http://noaa.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3bc7611c1d904a5eaf90ecbec88fa799, and Mean Higher High Water: http://noaa.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=9471f8d4f43e48109de6275522856696. In addition, the DEM Global Mosaic is a general-purpose global, seamless bathymetry/topography mosaic containing all the DEMs together.

                  xyz files of the bathymetric data were surfaced using GMT's 'surface' tool onto a 1 arc-second grid 
                  that interpolated to fill empty cells. Points extracted every 10 meters along the coastline were 
                  also included to ensure that the bathymetric grid reached zero at the coast. The resulting Arc ASCII 
                  grid was imported into ArcGIS and clipped to the coastline to remove values over land.

                  xyz files for each input dataset were gridded using MB-System's 'mbgrid' tool, which utilizes a 
                  high-tension spline interpolation method to fill grid cells with no input elevation values. 
                  Preferential weighting was given to more recent, higher-accuracy datasets. Gridding was performed in 
                  quadrants, each with a 5% data buffer. The grids were imported in ArcGIS and seamlessly merged to 
                  create the final

                  The DEM was quantitatively evaluated by comparing with source datasets and with elevation values 
                  extracted from NGS geodetic monuments. It was visually evaluated by converting to UTM-zone 
                  coordinates (units of meters horizontally and vertically) and then creating a slope grid to identify 
                  gridding artifacts in the DEM.
