This study examines the effectiveness and accuracy of SPOT-5 and ASTER LiDAR data satellite images, Global Pos1t1on1ng System (GPS), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), and Geographic Information System (GIS) in carrying out a revision of Nigerian topographic maps at the scale of 1:50,000. The data for the study were collected by extraction of relevant spatial data from the 1964 topographic map, delineation and interpretation of 2009 SPOT-5 data, and field surveys. The landscape changes extracted from SPOT- 5 were used to update the topographic base map and to determine the nature and direction of changes that have taken place in the study area. The findings revealed that changes have occurred in both cultural and relief features over time. The coefficient of correlation and t-test was calculated to show that changes in point, linear and areal features are significant. Also significant were the planh11etric and height accuracies of the revised map. The study shows that satellite data especially SPOT-5 is useful for the revision of topographic maps at scales of 1:50,000 and even larger. And, high-resolution remote sensing at Sm and ASTER data (30m) with GPS (±1.9m) can be used to c.reate a digital elevation model (DEM) on the map which is an essential dataset for complete revision. Cette étude examine l'efficacité et la précision des images satellites de données SPOT-5 et ASTER LiDAR, du système de positionnement global (GPS), du modèle numérique de terrain (MNT) et du système d'information géographique (SIG) pour effectuer une révision des cartes topographiques nigérianes au échelle de 1:50 000. Les données de l'étude ont été recueillies par extraction de données spatiales pertinentes à partir de la carte topographique de 1964, délimitation et interprétation des données SPOT-5 de 2009 et relevés de terrain. Les changements de paysage extraits de SPOT-5 ont été utilisés pour mettre à jour le fond de carte topographique et pour déterminer la nature et la direction des changements qui ont eu lieu dans la zone d'étude. Les résultats ont révélé que des changements se sont produits dans les caractéristiques culturelles et du relief au fil du temps. Le coefficient de corrélation et le test t ont été calculés pour montrer que les changements dans les caractéristiques ponctuelles, linéaires et aréales sont significatifs. Les précisions planimétriques et altimétriques de la carte révisée étaient également importantes. L'étude montre que les données satellitaires, en particulier SPOT-5, sont utiles pour la révision des cartes topographiques à des échelles de 1:50 000 et même plus. De plus, la télédétection haute résolution aux données Sm et ASTER (30 m) avec GPS (± 1,9 m) peut être utilisée pour créer un modèle d'élévation numérique (DEM) sur la carte qui est un ensemble de données essentiel pour une révision complète.

 Digital Terrain Model (DTM) or Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is an important data for Raster Analysis in modern GIS. Its use is extremely important for almost all fields of engineering, especially Water Resources Engineering. In Nepal, high-resolution DTM is not available, and often funds are limited to generate high-resolution DTM using modern day technology such as LiDAR or Aerial Photography. As a result most of the works are based on SRTM DEM which is available free of cost. Presently, 1arc second DTM is available in SRTM for Nepalese Territories. In this study, the applicability of 1arc second or 30m resolution SRTM is checked in comparison with the Department of Survey Digital Topographic Map. It is found that SRTM DEM performs better than DEM generated from Data available with Survey Department.Journal of the Institute of Engineering, 2018, 14(1): 235-240

AbstractThere has been growing demand for 3D modeling from earth observations, especially for purposes of urban and regional planning and management. The results of 3D observations has slowly become the primary source of data in terms of policy determination and infrastructure planning. In this research, we presented an automatic building segmentation method that directly uses LIDAR data. Previous works have utilized the CNN method to automatically segment buildings. However, the existing body of works have relied heavily on the conversion of LIDAR data into Digital Terrain Model (DTM), Digital Surface Model (DSM), or Digital Elevation Model (DEM) formats. Those formats required conversion of LIDAR data into raster images, which poses challenges to the evaluation of building volumes. In this paper, we collected LIDAR data with unmanned aerial vehicle and directly segmented buildings utilizing the said LIDAR data. We utilized a Dynamic Graph Convolutional Neural Network (DGCNN) algorithm to separate buildings and vegetation. We then utilized Euclidean Clustering to segment each building. We found that the combination of these methods are superior to prior works in the field, with accuracy up to 95.57% and an Intersection Over Union (IOU) score of 0.85.

Light Detection and Ranging or LiDAR data is a data source for deriving digital terrain model while Digital Elevation Model or DEM is usable within Geographical Information System or GIS. The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of LiDAR derived DEM generated based on different interpolation methods and slope classes. Initially, the study area is divided into three slope classes: (a) slope class one (0° – 5°), (b) slope class two (6° – 10°) and (c) slope class three (11° – 15°). Secondly, each slope class is tested using three distinctive interpolation methods: (a) Kriging, (b) Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and (c) Spline. Next, accuracy assessment is done based on field survey tachymetry data. The finding reveals that the overall Root Mean Square Error or RMSE for Kriging provided the lowest value of 0.727 m for both 0.5 m and 1 m spatial resolutions of oil palm area, followed by Spline with values of 0.734 m for 0.5 m spatial resolution and 0.747 m for spatial resolution of 1 m. Concurrently, IDW provided the highest RMSE value of 0.784 m for both spatial resolutions of 0.5 and 1 m. For rubber area, Spline provided the lowest RMSE value of 0.746 m for 0.5 m spatial resolution and 0.760 m for 1 m spatial resolution. The highest value of RMSE for rubber area is IDW with the value of 1.061 m for both spatial resolutions. Finally, Kriging gave the RMSE value of 0.790m for both spatial resolutions.

Horizon is a Geographic Information System (GIS) tool designed for archaeoastronomers investigating alignments of prehistoric monuments with astronomical phenomena (for example, rising and setting of the Sun, Moon and stars). It gets its name from its primary function, calculating accurate horizon profiles using Digital Terrain Model/Digital Elevation Model mapping data. More generally, it is a landscape visualisation tool which can generate full 360° panoramic scenes using 3D rendering techniques which may have some applications in the field of landscape archaeology.

Airbus Defence and Space’s WorldDEM™ provides a global Digital Elevation Model of unprecedented quality, accuracy, and coverage. The product will feature a vertical accuracy of 2m (relative) and better than 6m (absolute) in a 12m x 12m raster. The accuracy will surpass that of any global satellite-based elevation model available. WorldDEM is a game-changing disruptive technology and will define a new standard in global elevation models. <br><br> The German radar satellites TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X form a high-precision radar interferometer in space and acquire the data basis for the WorldDEM. This mission is performed jointly with the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Airbus DS refines the Digital Surface Model (e.g. editing of acquisition, processing artefacts and water surfaces) or generates a Digital Terrain Model. Three product levels are offered: WorldDEMcore (output of the processing, no editing is applied), WorldDEM™ (guarantees a void-free terrain description and hydrological consistency) and WorldDEM DTM (represents bare Earth elevation). <br><br> Precise elevation data is the initial foundation of any accurate geospatial product, particularly when the integration of multi-source imagery and data is performed based upon it. Fused data provides for improved reliability, increased confidence and reduced ambiguity. This paper will present the current status of product development activities including methodologies and tool to generate these, like terrain and water bodies editing and DTM generation. In addition, the studies on verification & validation of the WorldDEM products will be presented.

Very high resolution (VHR) DSMs (digital surface models) derived from stereo- or multi-stereo images from current VHR satellites like WorldView-2 or Pléiades can be produced up to the ground sampling distance (GSD) of the sensors in the range of 50 cm to 1 m. From such DSMs the digital terrain model (DTM) representing the ground and also a so called nDEM (normalized digital elevation model) describing the height of objects above the ground can be derived. In parallel these sensors deliver multispectral imagery which can be used for a spectral classification of the imagery. Fusion of the multispectral classification and the nDEM allows a simple classification and detection of urban objects. In further processing steps these detected urban objects can be modeled and exported in a suitable description language like CityGML. In this work we present the pre-processing steps up to the classification and detection of the urban objects. The modeling is not part of this work. The pre-processing steps described here cover briefly the coregistration of the input images and the generation of the DSM. In more detail the improvement of the DSM, the extraction of the DTM and nDEM, the multispectral classification and the object detection and extraction are explained. The methods described are applied to two test regions from two satellites: First the center of Munich acquired by WorldView-2 and second the center of Melbourne acquired by Pl´eiades. From both acquisitions a stereo-pair from the panchromatic bands is used for creation of the DSM and the pan-sharpened multispectral images are used for spectral classification. Finally the quality of the detected urban objects is discussed.

With the advances in modern science and technology, we are able to collect and integrate data about earth surfaces to a centralized data model for the purpose of creating topographic maps and cadastral maps. In reality, when it comes to TIN models in geodesy and cartography, TIN model is used to build Digital Elevation Model (DEM), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), or Digital Surface Model (DSM). When applying the TIN model to solve cadastral problems, Topology is a fundamental problem in data processing and data management. The purpose of this paper is to study and to create Topology of land plots on cadastral maps by two methods: traditional “Vector” and “Rasterizing” on TIN model. DCEL structure, which has the advantage of managing independent half edges flexibly in updating data’s changes, is determined to be the data structure in this study. Research results in creating Topo model for land plots can confirm that it is possible to apply TIN model in cadastral data management. Simultaneously, it is also confirmed that the problem of processing combined terrains and cadastral data on a centralized data model has high practical meaning.

Salah satu data penginderaan jauh yang penting adalah DEM (Digital Elevation Model). Data DEM memberikan informasi ketinggian suatu permukaan bumi dimana dikelompokkan menjadi 2 yaitu DSM (Digital Surface Model) yang menyajikan informasi ketinggian permukaan tutupan lahan dan DTM (Digital Terrain Model) yang menyajikan informasi ketinggian tanah. Pemetaan banjir rob secara umum menggunakan data DTM. Tetapi untuk mendapatkan data DTM sangatlah sulit. Salah satu data DEM yang tersedia secara gratis adalah data DEM terkoreksi hasil ekstraksi dari ALOS PALSAR yang memiliki resolusi spasial 12,5 meter, tidak terlalu bagus untuk digunakan sebagai data untuk pemetaan genangan banjir rob mengingat itu hanyalah DSM. Sedangkan menggunakan data titik ketinggian yang di interpolasi tidak terlalu merepresentatifkan kondisi ketinggian medan suatu wilayah kecuali jika jumlah titiknya banyak. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode slope based filtering untuk mengkonversi data DEM dari ALOS PALSAR menjadi DTM.Hasil dari metode ini dilakukan uji statistik berupa korelasi dengan data titik ketinggian dan mempunyai nilai korelasi yang sangat tinggi yaitu sebesar 0,80 dan nilai RMSE sebesar 1,402. Selanjutnya dibuat pemodalan spasial genangan banjir rob dari DTM. Hasil pemodelan spasial genanngan banjir rob kemudin diuji akurasi dengan uji statistik korelasi dan penghitungan RMSE dengan data hasil survey lapangan. Hasil pemodelan memiliki korelasi sebesar 0,78 dengan nilai RMSE tinggi genangan banjir rob sebesar 0,763. Yang berarti bahwa rata-rata selisih nilai ketinggian genangan banjir rob dari peta dan dilapangan adalah sebesar 0,763m. Wilayah genangan banjir rob meliputi Desa Jeruksari, Desa Tegaldowo, Desa Mulyorejo dan Desa Karangjompo.

Today, topography is an essential part for the construction of civil works in Mexico and in the world, obtaining it has become a complicated task due to the large areas to be built, the difficult access that puts the integrity of individuals at risk; and the high requirement of personnel for the tasks. Currently, photogrammetry using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) has been potentiated due to the infinity of uses, autonomy and little demand for resources, to carry out tasks in short times. Furthermore, the topography was, until some years ago, quasi-static, however due to the alteration generated by human activities it has been transformed into a dynamic activity. This work presents the procedures to carry out a topographic survey in the Querétaro valley, in an area called “El Ensueño”, it has had a subsidence fault for years, and has been in constant movement, causing considerable damage to infrastructure. . The present study reveals for the first time an orthomosaic and a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the study site, for a survey with UAV it is necessary to use Ground Control Points (GCP), in order to correct the DEM by orthorectification of the images obtained during the flight by means of UAV. The results obtained show a total error in centimeters of 3.33 and image pixels in 0.311, both in the X, Y and Z space, which represent an acceptable error considering that the latter must be less than 0.6 pixels, so Therefore, the alignment of the images and measurement by GPS were performed correctly during the processing. Furthermore, the Digital Terrain Model (DTM) shows dramatic differences between one side and the other of the fault zone, which may indicate that this is a perfect tool to distinguish particular affected areas with a quick and more accurate method
