Austrian Digital Elevation Model
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Description
The following text was abstracted from Bruce Gittings' Digital Elevation Data Catalogue: 'geo.ed.ac.uk/home/ded.html'. The catalogue is a comprehensive source of information on digital elevation data and should be retrieved in its entirety for additional information. A DEM covering all of Austria was produced in the late 1980's and this is currently being revised to improve quality.
The source is photogrammetric N-S profiles (which were collected with the primary aim of orthophoto production). The original profile distance varies between 30 and 160m, but this was resampled to the resolution of 50m. The DEM is georeferenced to the Austrian National Grid (Bundesmeldenetz), which is a Gau-Krueger (Transverse Mercator) system covering all of Austria in three meridional sections.

There are two ASCII formats available; either WINPUT (x,y,z) or DTMX (blocked "z" matrix), both of these are from the SCOP DTM software. Documentation is available. The data is available on diskettes, 9 track tape or Exabyte cartridges.
The cost of ATS 53 per sq. km is subject to an additional handling fee of ATS 2000.
