GEODATA 9 second Digital Elevation Model Version 3 Hillshade

Brief description

## **Abstract**

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. This dataset was derived from the GA GEODATA 9 arc-second Digital Elevation Model (DEM) (GUID: ebcf6ca2-513a-4ec7-9323-73508c5d7b93).

This dataset contains a cartographic hillshade GRID of Australia.

## **Purpose**

This dataset was created for use in the Bioregional Assessments to provide a cartographic hillshade dataset to enhance the visualisation of relief, elevation and topography for use in maps of large areas, based on the GA GEODATA 9 arc-second Digital Elevation Model (DEM) (GUID: ebcf6ca2-513a-4ec7-9323-73508c5d7b93).

## **Dataset History**

Created from the GA GEODATA 9 arc-second Digital Elevation Model (DEM) (GUID: ebcf6ca2-513a-4ec7-9323-73508c5d7b93) using the Hillshade tool from the 3D Analyst Toolbox in ArcCatalog version 10.0. The default values for the Azimuth (315 degrees), Altitude (45 degrees) and Z factor (1) parameters were used to create this hillshade.
