GSHHG (Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Geography Database; formerly Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Shoreline Database (GSHHS)) is a high-resolution shoreline data set amalgamated from two data bases (the CIA world database WDBII, and the World Vector Shoreline database) in the public domain. The data have undergone extensive processing and are free of internal inconsistencies such as and crossing segments. The shorelines are constructed entirely from hierarchically arranged closed polygons. The four-level hierarchy is as follows: seashore, lakes, islands within lakes, ponds within islands within lakes.

  • GSHHG (englisch Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Geography Database; früher englisch Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Shoreline Database (GSHHS)) ist ein freier geographischer Datensatz. Er umfasst Küstenlinien, Flüsse, Gewässer und Grenzen in verschiedenen Auflösungen. Er basiert auf den World Vector Shorelines (WVS), der CIA World Data Bank II (WDBII) und dem Atlas of the Cryosphere (AC). (de)

The shorelines are constructed entirely from hierarchically arranged closed polygons. The four-level hierarchy is as follows: seashore, lakes, islands within lakes, ponds within islands within lakes. The data can be used to simplify data searches and data selections, or to study the statistical characteristics of shorelines and land-masses. It comes with access software and routines to facilitate decimation based on a standard line-reduction algorithm. GSHHS is developed and maintained by Dr. Paul Wessel at the University of Hawai'i, and Dr. Walter H. F. Smith at the . (en)
