SRTM30+ Global 1-km Digital Elevation Model (DEM): Version 11: Land Surface: Hillshade

A global 1-km resolution land surface digital elevation model (DEM) grayscale hillshade. Derived from the SRTM30+ v11 dataset produced at Scripps Institution of Oceanography from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 30 arc-second SRTM30 gridded DEM data, itself a product of NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). GTOPO30 data are used for high latitudes where SRTM data are not available.
