Earth2014

License: MIT

Download topographic data for the globe.

Usage

julia> using Earth2014

julia> x, y, z = Earth2014.load() # or Earth.load(res="1min"), default is "5min"

This will download the data via Datadeps.jl only once and make it available for future use.

Then you can use it for your research, or just plot it for example:

julia> using Plots

julia> heatmap(x, y, z, clim=maximum(abs.(z)).*(-1,1), color=:topo)

which should show something like

5min-resolution global relief plot
