Population data for a selection of countries, allocated to 1 arcsecond blocks and provided in a combination of CSV
and Cloud-optimized GeoTIFF files. This refines CIESIN’s Gridded Population of the World
using machine learning models on high-resolution worldwide Maxar satellite imagery. CIESIN population counts aggregated from worldwide census
data are allocated to blocks where imagery appears to contain buildings.
This data set (ATL08) contains along-track heights above the WGS84 ellipsoid (ITRF2014 reference frame) for the ground and canopy surfaces. The canopy and ground surfaces are processed in fixed 100 m data segments, which typically contain more than 100 signal photons. The data were acquired by the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) instrument on board the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) observatory.

THIS DATASET IS CHANGING
Files uploaded from late January 2026 onward will contain changes including:
precision changes
new parameters
changes to existing parameters e.g. adding vertical levels and timesteps
the height_asl_on_pressure_levels parameter will be replaced by geopotential_height_on_pressure_levels
Please check your systems are prepared for these changes.
A numerical weather prediction forecast for the whole globe, with a resolution of approximately 0.09 degrees i.e. 10km (2,560 x 1,920 grid points). The data is available as NetCDF files. It's offered on a free, unsupported basis, so we don't recommend using it for any critical business purposes.
The global deterministic model is a global configuration of the Unified Model, which is the Met Office’s flagship Numerical Weather Prediction model. The model’s initial state is kept close to the real atmosphere using hybrid 4D-Var data assimilation.
