Digital Elevation Models are a “bare earth” representation because they only contain information about the elevation of geological (ground) features, such as valleys, mountains, and landslides, to name a few. They do not include any elevation data concerning non-ground features, such as vegetation or buildings...”<br>[read more at the link above...]<br><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/GIS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GIS</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/spatial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spatial</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/mapping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mapping</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/elevation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elevation</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/spatialdata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spatialdata</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/spatialanalysis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spatialanalysis</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>data</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/digital" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>digital</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/DEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DEM</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/digitalelevationmodel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>digitalelevationmodel</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/spatialanalysis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spatialanalysis</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/LiDAR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LiDAR</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/remotesensing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>remotesensing</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/model" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>model</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/modeling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>modeling</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/IFSAR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IFSAR</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/onlinelearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>onlinelearning</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/onlinelessons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>onlinelessons</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/guide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guide</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/tutorial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tutorial</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/landform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>landform</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/bathymetry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bathymetry</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/geomorphology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geomorphology</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geology</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/landforms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>landforms</span></a></p>
