Availability of 15s resolution topography dataset for WPS

Hello,

I’m working with WRF and trying to generate domains using high-resolution geographical data. I currently have:

- MODIS landuse data at 15s resolution (modis_landuse_20class_15s_with_lakes)
- GMTED2010 topography at 30s resolution (gmted2010_30s)

I wanted to ask:
Is there any available topography dataset at 15s resolution compatible with WPS?

I checked the official WPS GEOG data page (Static Data Downloads), but couldn’t find topography at 15s.

If it’s not available officially, is there any recommended alternative or workflow to downscale or create it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Constanza

Hello Constanza:

I solved a similar problem following this post. I used SRTM 90 m from here. I hope this can help you.
