[Marble-devel] Re: SRTM elevation database in Marble?

Bernhard,

> I have once used SRTM data with 90 m resolution in the OpenGL branch [1, 2]. It was provided by NASA but is unfortunately not available any more. It delivered really great results! I have no plans to set up our own SRTM database for Marble, though. Volunteers needed!

Interesting. CGIAR seem to provide access to the database itself:
