L'mTPI distingue le forme di cresta da quelle di valle. Viene calcolato utilizzando i dati di elevazione per ogni località sottratti all'elevazione media all'interno di un quartiere. L'indice mTPI utilizza finestre mobili di raggio (km): 115,8, 89,9, 35,5, 13,1, 5,6, 2,8 e 1,2. Si basa sul DEM NED a 10 metri dell'USGS (disponibile
in EE come USGS/NED).
I set di dati, le forme del terreno e la fisiografia di Conservation Science Partners (CSP) Ecologically Relevant Geomorphology (ERGo) contengono dati dettagliati e multiscala su forme del terreno e pattern fisiografici (noti anche come sfaccettature del terreno). Sebbene
questi dati possano essere utilizzati in molti modi, lo scopo originale era quello di sviluppare una classificazione e una mappa ecologicamente pertinenti di
forme del terreno e classi fisiografiche adatte alla pianificazione dell'adattamento ai cambiamenti climatici. Poiché esiste una grande incertezza associata alle condizioni climatiche future e ancora maggiore incertezza sulle risposte ecologiche, fornire informazioni su ciò che è improbabile che cambi offre una solida base per consentire ai gestori di elaborare piani di adattamento al clima efficaci. La quantificazione di queste caratteristiche del paesaggio è sensibile alla risoluzione, pertanto forniamo la risoluzione più elevata possibile in base all'estensione e alle caratteristiche di un determinato indice.

Although\nthere are many potential uses of these data, the original purpose for these\ndata was to develop an ecologically relevant classification and map of\nlandforms and physiographic classes that are suitable for climate adaptation\nplanning. Because there is large uncertainty associated with future climate\nconditions and even more uncertainty around ecological responses, providing\ninformation about what is unlikely to change offers a strong foundation for\nmanagers to build robust climate adaptation plans. The quantification of\nthese features of the landscape is sensitive to the resolution, so we\nprovide the highest resolution possible given the extent and characteristics\nof a given index.\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n270 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Units | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------------|-------|------|-----|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `elevation` | m | -378 | 493 | meters | NED-derived mTPI ranging from negative (valleys) to positive (ridges) values |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\n[CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0](https://spdx.org/licenses/CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0.html)\n\n### Citations\n\nCitations:\n\n- Theobald, D.
