There's two rows of bad data in this tile, shown in black from QGIS:

Here's the output from gdalinfo: Band 1 Block=256x256 Type=Float32, ColorInterp=Gray Minimum=-8566.333, Maximum=2539.531, Mean=2173.470, StdDev=497.209 NoData Value=-3.4028235e+38 Metadata: STATISTICS_MAXIMUM=2539.5305175781 STATISTICS_MEAN=2173.4702906613 STATISTICS_MINIMUM=-8566.3330078125 STATISTICS_STDDEV=497.20867381496 STATISTICS_VALID_PERCENT=100

This also exists in neighboring tiles. This shouldn't have -8566. It should have nodata or the correct values.

There was a GDAL config error related to NODATA that manifests where two or more sources touch in this old build. To work around it you'd need to do light pre-processing on the tile data to scrub non-sensical data like this.

Ideally there would be another global build to fix this, but it needs resourcing of engineering time and compute.

Bad data also exists in 13 1258 2742, related to the row of data. In 13, 2358, 2742 the elevation data is -6872m.

In 14, 2519, 5484 there's two rows of data that are invalid with data -8566.33m and 82.75m.

What would you suggest on doing reliable "light pre-processing"? Currently, I'm using z-score to through out outliers. Do you any a better method?
