Multi-resolution Ridge Top Flatness (MrRTF)

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

MrRTF is a topographic index designed to identify high flat areas at a range of scales. It complements the MrVBF index that is designed to identify areas of deposited material in flat valley bottoms. Unlike MrVBF, the MrRTF index does not have a clear link to landform processes but it has been found to be a useful adjunct to MrVBF in landform classification. Zero values indicate areas that are steep or low, with values 1 and larger indicating progressively larger areas of high flat land. This collection includes MrRTF data at 1 arc-second and 3 arc-second resolutions. The 3 arc-second resolution product was generated from the 1 arc-second MrRTF product and masked by the 3” water and ocean mask datasets.
