Data creation is often the only way for researchers to produce basic geospatial information for the pursuit of more complex tasks and procedures such as those that lead to the production of new data for studies concerning river basins, slope morphodynamics, applied geomorphology and geology, urban and territorial planning, detailed studies, for example, in architecture and civil engineering, among others. This exercise results from a reflection where specific data processing tasks executed in…

Methods for visual quality assessment of a digital terrain model
A Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is a continuous representation of a ground surface landform that is commonly used to produce topographic maps. DTMs are created by integrating data obtained from a wide…

Digital Terrain Models
ADigital TerrainModel (DTM) approximates a part or the whole of the continuous terrain surface by a set of discrete points with unique height values over 2D points. Heights are in approximation…
Quality assessment of high density digital surface model over different land cover classes
TLDR
The results of this research suggest that the high density DSM generated from digital aerial stereo images and by using the proposed methodology has the potential to be used in forestry, primarily in forest inventory.
Terrain models — A tool for natural hazard mapping
Survey mapping of potential snow-avalanche and rock-fall hazard can be done based on information derived from topographical maps alone. A computer based system using digital terrain models will…
