Height data Haram-Skodje-Vestnes-Ørskog 2007

Elevation data provides a detailed description of terrain and surface. The data are established as point clouds from airborne laser scanning or matching from aerial images. The point clouds have varying density (point/m²) for different purposes. From the point clouds, elevation models are generated on grid format of terrain (DTM) and surface (DOM).高程数据可对地形与地表进行精细化描述。此类数据可通过机载激光扫描生成点云，或由航空影像匹配得到点云。根据不同应用场景，此类点云的点密度（点/平方米）存在差异。基于此类点云，可生成地形格网格式的数字地形模型（DTM, Digital Terrain Model）与地表格网格式的数字地表模型（DOM, Digital Surface Model）。
