A digital terrain model of Antarctica in Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN) format, derived from ERS Radar Altimetry.
An ESRI formatted triangular irregular network (TIN) of the Antarctic continental terrain, derived from ERS radar altimeter data. The data is in a Polar Stereographic projection with true scale at 71 degrees South. The TIN is unreliable in latitudes south of 82 degrees South and steep areas of the c...
