The data consist in topographic maps of synthetic 3D bodies generated by a 3-parameter statistical model: the fractionally integrated flux (FiF) [1] adapted for spherical coordinates and topography [2]. The 3 parameters are: H (degree of smoothness), C1 (degree of intermittency), alpha (degree of multifractality). The service contains topographic maps (in fits format) and texture maps (in png format). [1] Lavallée, D., Lovejoy, S., Schertzer, D., & Ladoy, P. (1993).
