Global Digital Elevation Models (GDEM) are considered very attractive for current research and application areas due to their free and wide range accessibility. The ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model exhibits the highest spatial resolution data of all global DEMs and it is generated for almost the whole globe. Unfortunately, ASTER GDEM data include many artifacts and height errors that decrea...

A DEM is one of the most useful information for spatial modelling and monitoring. Several DEMs have been published in the public domain like SRTM and ASTER GDEM with and without considering the horizontal and vertical misallocation of single input data. Results of that are for example the inherent errors in the ASTER GDEM V1 dataset as well as the known striping in the SRTM dataset. Therefore, ...

Digital elevation models (DEM) are of fundamental importance for remote sensing. With a DEM the three-dimensional positioning, requiring a stereo model can be reduced to a two-dimensional solution just based on a single image. With the free of charge availability of the SRTM-height models, covering the land area from 56° southern up to 60.25° northern latitude a nearly world wide coverage is gi...

U radu je prikazana detaljna analiza parametara koji definišu kvalitet kreiranog GDEM-a. Nakon opsežne analize dobijenih rezultata, prikazani su i algoritmi kojima se mogu poboljšati vrednosti ASTER GDEM-a v3 definiše tačnost ovog globalnog modela.

Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) including Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer-Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTER GDEM), Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), and Global Multi-resolution Terrain Elevation Data 2010 (GMTED2010) are freely available for nearly the entire earth’s surface. DEMs that are usually subject to errors need to be evaluated using reference e...

BACKGROUND With myriad geospatial datasets now available for terrain information extraction and particularly streamline demarcation, there arises questions regarding the scale, accuracy and sensitivity of the initial dataset from which these aspects are derived, as they influence all other parameters computed subsequently. In this study, digital elevation models (DEM) derived from Advanced Spac...

A recent Announcement of Collaborative Opportunity (AOCO) [1], offers an invitation to interested parties to participate in an exercise to validate the new ASTER Global DEM (GDEM). At the time of this abstract submission, the ASTER GDEM has not yet been released but is expected to be available for validation purposes in early 2009 and for general use later in 2009. The validation program is co-...

Nowadays, like many other fields, DEM is widely used in the field of hydraulic engineering. In our studies, we compared DEMs (SRTM, ASTER GDEM v2, and ALOS PALSAR) for area recommended construction Shurbulak water reservoir. Contours were developed all with contours a topographic map. The SRTM PALSAR closely match on map than ASTER. Vertical differences between SRTM, GDEM2, products computed ro...
