The global data sets are mapped at consistent spatial and temporal resolutions and are compiled in four key areas: land cover, hydrometeorology, radiation, and soils. The data sets cover those four areas, span the 10-year period, 1986-1995, and are mapped to consistent grids (0.5 x 0.5 degree for topography and land cover, 1 x 1 degree for meteorological parameters). The temporal resolution for most data sets is monthly; however, a few are at a finer resolution (e.g., 3-hourly).
