A new digital bathymetric model for the Northeast Greenland continental shelf has been released. Find how to access the data set and more information from its accompanying release paper.
Additional export formats for GEBCO's gridded data sets are now available
GEBCO makes available global bathymetric grids for the world's oceans. Our latest data set, the GEBCO_2014 Grid, was released in December 2014 and is a global terrain model at 30 arc-second intervals.
GEBCO's grids can be downloaded from the internet, on behalf of GEBCO from the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC), either as global grids or for user-defined areas.
We have recently extended the web download application so that the GEBCO_2014 Grid is now available for download in the following additional formats:
- Esri ASCII raster — an ASCII format developed for the export/exchange of Esri ARC/INFO rasters. The format consists of a header that gives the geographic extent and grid interval of the data set, followed by the actual grid cell data values.
- INT16 GeoTiff — GeoTiff format contains geo-referencing (geographic extent and projection) information embedded within a Tiff file. The GEBCO_2014 Grid is made available as single-channel INT16 (two byte signed integer) data values for user-defined areas in GeoTiff format.
