ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTER GDEM)

From the webpage:

ASTER GDEM is an easy-to-use, highly accurate DEM covering all the land on earth, and available to all users regardless of size or location of their target areas.

Anyone can easily use the ASTER GDEM to display a bird’s-eye-view map or run a flight simulation, and this should realize visually sophisticated maps. By utilizing the ASTER GDEM as a platform, institutions specialized in disaster monitoring, hydrology, energy, environmental monitoring etc. can perform more advanced analysis.

In addition to the data, there is a GDEM viewer (freeware) at this site.

All that is missing is your topic map and you.
