Summary

Elevation map of the entire <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth" class="extiw" title="en:Earth">en:Earth</a>, as a flat polar quartic, with color-coding to indicate higher elevations as darker brown (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG" class="extiw" title="en:JPEG">en:JPEG</a> version). The map is based on the ETOPO2 dataset, distributed by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USGS" class="extiw" title="en:USGS">en:USGS</a> in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S." class="extiw" title="en:U.S.">en:U.S.</a>.

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG" class="extiw" title="en:PNG">en:PNG</a>-format version: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Elevation_flat_polar_quartic.png" class="extiw" title="en:Image:Elevation flat polar quartic.png">en::Image:Elevation flat polar quartic.png</a>

As a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG" class="extiw" title="en:JPEG">en:JPEG</a>-format file, the image will auto-resize for transmission as a smaller (5-10x smaller) file than PNG-format. It is intended for use in frequently-read articles (such as "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1803" class="extiw" title="en:1803">en:1803</a>"), to avoid delays from PNG files (up to 30 seconds slower per image).
