Sonny's LiDAR Digital Terrain Models of Europe #348

Open SonnyLidarDTM opened 9 months ago

SonnyLidarDTM commented 9 months ago

Dear OpenTopoMap Team,

I want to tell you, that I’ve created Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) of many European countries. These are based on precise Opendata LiDAR-elevation data of the country’s Geographical Institutes.

The improvements in accuracy, quality and fine details of these model’s compared to those of satellite-based datasets like SRTM, ASTER, ALOS, COPERNICUS are enormous. Especially in wooded areas, steep rocky terrain or narrow valleys.

Download and use are for free, although I appreciate a donation to support my work :grinning:

You can find all infos and download links on my website: https://sonny.4lima.de

That sounds very interesting and like a potentially big improvement. Is there any chance that this will be implemented at all or even soon?
