A collection of artistic topography map renderings, using digital elevation data of terrain and seafloor (bathymetry), shaded with Shaded Relief colours.

Atlantic Ocean

Preview of Shaded Relief rendering of the Atlantic Ocean

A rendering of the seafloor topography (bathymetry) of the Atlantic Ocean and surrounding landmasses, shaded as a shaded relief map.

Heightfield elevation data from SRTM15+: Global Bathymetry and Topography at 15 arcseconds was used to displace the surface into a topological terrain representation, although the height scale has been exaggerated for artistic purposes.

Korea and Japan
