The #Mountains_Uncovered_Series: Intercomparable Maps and Statistics for 100 Selected Global Mountain Ranges (v1.0)
The Mountains Uncovered series (v1.0) was developed by #GEO _Mountains (▻https://www.geomountains.org), an Initiative of the #Group_on_Earth_Observations (GEO) and a Flagship Activity of the #Mountain_Research_Initiative, and #Geofolio. It seeks to provide an easily understandable overview of the key characteristics of 100 selected mountain ranges around the world.
The series was developed by collating and visualising a variety of current global scale, open data products. The consistent approach taken throughout enables comparisons between mountain ranges to be made. We hope that the series will be a useful resource for researchers, policy-makers, environmental managers, educators, and others seeking to better understand the Earth’s major mountain regions, and that over time it will inspire the generation of additional datasets, analyses, and products.
