Global Terrestrial Network - Hydrology (GTN-H)
Data Access

Data Availability: The Global Terrestrial Network – Hydrology (GTN-H) links existing networks and systems for integrated observations of the global water cycle. The GTN-H is a joint project of the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), the World Meteorological Organization / Climate and Water Department (WMO/CLW), and the Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS).

Data Access and Information on the terrestrial ECVs are available in the ECV Data Access Matrix.

Updated February 2, 2011

Data Access

  • GTN-H Data Viewer (GTN-H) The team at the University of New Hampshire is currently working on the Map Server to display GTN-H Data Products. The Map Server currently included gives a first overview about what the maps will look like, but does NOT include the final data and is mainly given for demonstration purposes. The server and the menu will be changed till 18th May according to the outline given here (data viewer access) (data documentation) (metadata) (contact) (sponsors)
