Completed in late 1996, GTOPO30 was developed over\na three-year period through a collaborative effort led by the U.S.\nGeological Survey''s Center for Earth Resources Observation and\nScience (EROS). The following organizations participated by contributing\nfunding or source data: the National Aeronautics and Space Administration\n(NASA), the United Nations Environment Programme/Global Resource\nInformation Database (UNEP/GRID), the U.S. Agency for International\nDevelopment (USAID), the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica Geografica\ne Informatica (INEGI) of Mexico, the Geographical Survey Institute (GSI)\nof Japan, Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research of New Zealand, and\nthe Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR).\n\n### Bands\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Units | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------------|-------|--------|--------|---------------|-------------|\n| `elevation` | m | -407\\* | 8752\\* | 927.67 meters | Elevation |\n\n\\* estimated min or max value\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nThere are no restrictions on the use of data received\nfrom the U.S. Geological Survey's Earth Resources Observation and\nScience (EROS) Center.
