US NED mTPI (Multi-Scale Topographic Position Index) (CSP/ERGo/1_0/US/mTPI)
Version 1.0
The mTPI distinguishes ridge from valley forms. It is calculated using
elevation data for each location subtracted by the mean elevation within a
neighborhood. mTPI uses moving windows of radius (km): 115.8, 89.9, 35.5,
13.1, 5.6, 2.8, and 1.2. It is based on the USGS’s 10m NED DEM (available
in EE as USGS/NED).
