Free Webinar: Introduction to Digital Elevation Models

Intermap is offering a free 45-minute webinar next week to demonstrate how high-resolution 3D Digital Elevation Maps (DEMs) are enabling GIS and geospatial applications across several industries.

As the fields of digital mapping and geospatial analysis continue to grow, the use of 3D data is becoming more widespread. One of the most common types of 3D data is a digital elevation model, or DEM. In this Webinar, we’ll talk about what DEMs are and how they differ from other types of spatial data. We’ll also look at some of the sources of DEM data, their quality, and how they are generated. Lastly, we’ll look at examples of how you can use DEMs in sophisticated geospatial analysis to solve real-world problems.
