Standard deviation (elev-stdev) is a measure of the amount of variation within a dataset. The standard deviation of elevation was calculated using a 3 × 3 moving window. Values close to 0 indicate no variation, (i.e. flat areas), while areas with high standard deviation indicate areas with very steep terrain.
