WorldDEM Neo satellite image

What is WorldDEM Neo?

It offers a combination of global coverage, highly accurate WorldDEM data, up-to-date and fresh data acquisition (from 2017-2021) and a unique resolution. It sets a new standard in satellite-based elevation models that are globally available today for GIS.

Features

  • 5m pixel spacing for every spot on earth
  • Unrivaled accuracies of 2m relative and 1.4m absolute vertical
  • Homogeneous, seamless, pole-to-pole coverage
  • Globally off-the-shelf available
Did you know?

WorldDEM Neo products are built upon satellite imagery and the corresponding interferometric elevation data of the continuing TanDEM-X Mission, primarily acquired in the years 2017 to 2021. The goal of the mission was the generation of a worldwide, consistent, and high precision Digital Surface Model (DSM) based on SAR interferometry.

DSM or DTM?

Like all our Elevation products, WorldDEM Neo products are available as:

  • DSM: Edited Digital Surface Model including editing of terrain features and with assured hydrological consistency
  • DTM: Derived from the WorldDEM Neo (DSM) product by removing vegetation and man-made objects to show the bare terrain of the Earth's surface

 

WorldDEM Neo DTM provides a foundation layer for applications such as civil engineering (e.g. road design, Earth work calculation), the management of natural resources as well as planning and implementation of military operations (e.g. vehicle trafficability analysis, 3D terrain visualisation).
