Hello! Here is a hillshaded terrain map of Costa Rica. I’ve never been there, but I’d like to see it someday.
Click this image if you’d like to save it as a full-sized jpeg (10MB)…
If you are feeling dangerous, here’s a GeoTIFF file (97MB) that you can add to your map project.
And if you’re feeling especially dangerous, here’s a video walking through its making (no narration, you’re welcome)…
Feel free to download my merged DEM to skip the step of downloading the six NASA images and stitching them together.
Happy Mapping! John
Great stuff, how about narration? The download sequence from the SRTM would be a bigggg help. Could you give some tips on snow caps? I used your Imhof palette, but some snow caps would really make it pop.
