High-Accuracy Digital Elevation Models (DEM)

Unlock precise 3D terrain insights with our satellite-derived DEM Images, DSM, and DTM data products. Delivered in under 21 days for engineering, hydrology, and planning.

Overcoming Terrain Data Challenges with Better DEM Images

Inaccurate or outdated terrain data can derail critical projects. We provide the clarity and precision you need to move forward with confidence.

Common Pain Points

  • Inaccurate Public Data: Free, publicly available DEM images often lack the vertical accuracy needed for professional engineering, leading to costly design errors.
  • Project Delays: Waiting months for aerial surveys or traditional data acquisition stalls progress and inflates budgets.
  • No Coverage for Remote Areas: Critical projects in remote or politically sensitive regions are blocked by a complete lack of reliable elevation data.
  • Workflow Incompatibility: Receiving DEM images in formats that require complex, time-consuming conversion before use in standard GIS or CAD software.

Our Digital Elevation Model Services

We offer a suite of 3D data products, derived from high-resolution satellite imagery, to model the Earth's surface with exceptional detail.

Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

A bare-earth model of the terrain, representing the ground surface with all natural and man-made features removed. Essential for hydrology, geology, and land use planning.

Digital Surface Model (DSM)

Captures the elevation of all surface features, including vegetation, buildings, and infrastructure. Crucial for urban planning, forestry, and line-of-sight analysis.

Digital Terrain Model (DTM)

A more detailed representation of the bare-earth terrain, often including characteristic terrain features and breaklines. The foundation for most advanced engineering and cartographic work.

Powering a World of Applications with DEM Images

Our Digital Elevation Models provide the foundational data for precise planning, modeling, and analysis across numerous industries, from environmental management to national security.

Watershed & Hydrological Modeling

Analyze water flow, delineate watersheds, and model flood plains with unparalleled accuracy using our bare-earth DEM images.

Civil Engineering & Construction

Plan infrastructure projects, calculate cut-and-fill volumes, and design routes with confidence using precise DTM and DSM data.

RF & Wireless Communications

Model signal propagation and optimize transmitter placement with DSMs that accurately map obstructions like buildings and vegetation.

Simulation & Military Training

Create realistic virtual environments for flight simulators, mission planning, and urban training exercises with detailed 3D terrain data.

Cartography & Base Mapping

Produce high-quality topographic maps and generate accurate contour lines using our reliable Digital Elevation Models as a foundation.

Mining, Oil & Gas Exploration

Conduct geological surveys, plan well sites, and manage environmental impact with precise terrain data that enhances safety and efficiency.

Orthorectification of Imagery

Use our DEMs to correct geometric distortions in satellite or aerial imagery, creating true-to-scale orthophotos for accurate measurements.

Utilities & Route Planning

Optimize pipeline, transmission line, and road corridors by analyzing terrain slope, aspect, and profiles to minimize cost and environmental impact.

Environmental Impact Assessment

Model potential impacts of development projects on the landscape and ecosystems with a clear understanding of the baseline topography.
