Summary

SRTM data are organized into individual rasterized cells, or tiles, each covering one degree by one degree in latitude and longitude. Sample spacing for individual data points is either 1 arcsecond, 3 arc-seconds, or 30 arc-seconds, referred to as SRTM1, SRTM3 and SRTM30, respectively. Since one arc-second at the equator corresponds to roughly 30 meters in horizontal extent, the SRTM1 and SRTM3 are sometimes referred to as "30 meter" or "90 meter" data. SRTM data were processed and delivered continent-by-continent and data for each continent are located in a separate directory on this server. The definitions of the continents are displayed in the figure below and at higher resolution in the file Continent_def.gif. Edited SRTM1 data [...]

Provenance

Data source
The SRTM data sets result from a collaborative effort by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA - previously known as the National Imagery and Mapping Agency, or NIMA), as well as the participation of the German and Italian space agencies, to generate a near-global digital elevation model (DEM) of the Earth using radar interferometry.
