World Mercator Projection - Large

This image shows an SRTM data set for the world in a Mercator projection. It was created from an original map produced from data obtained by NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). Using Google's free Picasa2 program, the color and lighting were enhanced and then sharpened to obtain the image above. The original map is available at the NASA link above.
