Abstract
The 2011 Hillshade image (tiff) shows the ground surface detail as a single layer over the whole of Christmas Island. It can be used as an alternative to the 2011 shiny colour drape tiles, although ground detail in some areas is better shown in the tiles. It was created from the 2011 DEM using ESRI ArcMap with an azmith of 315, an altitude of 45 and a vertical exaggeration of 5x.

Lineage
In 2013 a hillshade (similar to the shiny colour drapes) image was produced from the 2011 digital elevation model. The hillshade was created in ArcMap using the hillshade tool with an azmith of 315, an altitude of 45 and a vertical exaggeration of 5. The hillshade covers the full extent of Christmas Island. The hillshade image can be viewed as a greyscale image, or underneath the DEM (if semi-transparent). It can also be viewed under any other layer to show the lie of the land, for example orthophotography, canopy heights or infrastructure.
