I can perhaps give you a heightfield with a higher resolution, but the
vertical resolution might not be that good (bitmap with range [0..255]).
I got the USGS data here: 
http://edcdaac.usgs.gov/gtopo30/
It's a 5400x4800 pixel bitmap for the Europe part (lots of sea and
ocean).

Oh, just checked, I only have North West Europe right now. The other
parts should be on the site as well.
