Elevation30


Worldwide 3D geographic reference database for all global coverage needs

-

Elevation30 is a unique worldwide 3D geographic reference database especially designed for large area coverage for mapping, GIS and military needs.
Derived from both optical (from Elevation30 DEM - Ortho layer & Quality Layers database) and radar spaceborne technologies, Elevation30 allows a greater coverage independent of terrain characteristics and weather conditions.
The model includes “first surface” elevations including vegetation and man-made structures.

Elevation30 has 3 layers of information:

  • DTED level 2 format DEM (Digital Elevation Model)
  • Orthoimage (ground control source)
  • A set of quality masks.

 


Key Benefits
-
  • Up to 6-metre horizontal and vertical accuracy
  • Based on DTED level 2 standards
  • Available for more than 50 million km² worldwide
  • Rapid delivery
  • Ideal for defence, mapping and terrain modelling applications

Elevation30 provides finely detailed information and close registration of data layers for:

  • rigorous matching of map data, for example in the oil industry,
  • building onboard databases for UAVs, missiles and aircraft, and for mission planning, well suited to defence, ministries andarmament manufacturers,
  • compiling or updating maps,
  • checking existing databases,
  • impact studies and geological structure studies,
  • setting up road and railway networks,
  • preparing missions and navigation files for weapon systems,
  • flight and landing approach simulations, among others.

An unlimited source of ground control points

Elevation30 orthoimages provide ground control points accurate enough to ensure GPS compatibility: better than 10mCE90.
They can be used to orthorectify imagery from most Earth observation satellites—e.g. SPOT, FORMOSAT-2, QuickBird, IKONOS, Envisat—when positional data are not available.
