Our intent is to provide a
select collection of pedigreed data - an "Atlas of
the Living Earth" -
that represents multi-disciplinary, state-of-the-science
information about
Earth and its people. We've chosen datasets that help complete
an integrated thematic approach to understanding Earth
as a system. We offer thematic
maps (raster data), geostatistical data (attribute data),
feature data (vector data),
and dynamic maps (rasterized geostatistical and time-series
data).
Free data
are downloadable through TerraViva!
GeoServer. Additional data - including higher
resolution map data - are listed in our data
catalog.
DATA FORMAT FOR THEMATIC MAPS
The thematic map data we offer is presented in our TerraViva! map file format
(tvm), viewable using our free
data viewer. Find out more

file format.
