Summary

This layer contains elevation values for points of interest around the world. This polygon file is intended for multi-scale thematic mapping and analysis.

Description

            

The spatial data were obtained from Natural Earth. The elevation points wre primarily derived from Patterson's Physical Map of the World. Attributes were modified to include scalerank, type, name, elevation, comment, latitude, longitude, nation(s) of location, note, region, and subregion. The coordinate system of this data is WGS 1984.
