Description
This will be based on the global DEM, but with processing possibly done at up to 90m resolution before aggregating to produce the globally consistent 1km product. Ming reports that a 90m aspect layer has been completed for the Oregon case study, so presumably at least some form of the procedure has already been worked out.

Take a look at the gdaldem command-line utility. It includes an aspect mode that will "generate an aspect map from any GDAL-supported elevation raster". This available in our gdal installation on eos (and easily installable elsewhere).
