DEM
GEBCO Global Grid
General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans. Global terrain and bathymetry at 15 arc-seconds.
A continuous elevation model for land and ocean. Land heights come mostly from SRTM-based products; the ocean from ship soundings and satellite-derived gravity. It is the standard source for lake-to-ocean and coastal work that needs bathymetry.
