Brief description

The elevation range measures the full range of elevations within a circular window and can be used as a representation of local relief.

The 300 m elevation range product was derived from the Smoothed Digital Elevation Model (DEM-S; ANZCW0703014016), which was derived from the 1 arc-second resolution SRTM data acquired by NASA in February 2000.

This collection includes data at 1 arc-second and 3 arc-second resolutions.

The 3 arc-second resolution product was generated from the 1 arc-second 300 m elevation range product and masked by the 3” water and ocean mask datasets.

300 m focal range elevation calculation
Elevation range is the full range of elevation within a circular window (Gallant and Wilson, 2000). Focal range using a 300 m window was calculated for each grid point from DEM-S using a 300 m kernel. The different spacing in the E-W and N-S directions due to the geographic projection of the data was accounted for by using the actual spacing in metres of the grid points, and recalculating the grid points included within the kernel extent for each 1o change in latitude.

The 300 m focal range elevation calculation was performed on 1° x 1° tiles, with overlaps to ensure correct values at tile edges.

The 3 arc-second resolution version was generated from the 1 second 300 m elevation range product. This was done by aggregating the 1” data over a 3 x 3 grid cell window and taking the maximum of the nine values that contributed to each 3” output grid cell. The 3” 300 m elevation range data were then masked using the SRTM 3” ocean and water body datasets.
