Copernicus DEM

The Copernicus DEM is the global Digital Surface Model of the Copernicus programme, derived from TanDEM-X radar data acquired between 2011 and 2015. Heights are in metres above the EGM2008 geoid and include buildings, infrastructure and vegetation.

Earth Data Hub serves both global products, GLO-30 for detailed local work and GLO-90 for continental and global analysis, each as a single seamless Zarr store, free to use with Python / Xarray and GDAL.
