  Description:
    Abstract: This GIS dataset contains the hillshade derived from the processed Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) data (30 m resolution) for the Chakhansur area of interest in Afghanistan.
    Purpose: Multi-use elevation dataset to be used in the assessment, monitoring, and management of Afghanistan's mineral deposits.
