Abstract:

The land slope cluster and aspect dataset of Nepal was developed using cluster models in slope degree and slope percentage with the ASTER GDEM V003 data covering Nepal area. The data indicates that the area of land where slope was higher than 15° accounts for 67.51% of the total area; the area of land where slope was higher than 10% accounts for 83.81%. The dataset is archived in .tif format, and consists of 18 data files with data size of 2.50 GB (Compressed into one file with 174 MB).
