Bonjour,
Actually, it is the other way around, as can be guessed from a global
view: flat areas appear in black.
So the lighter the grey, the steeper the slope.
It can indeed be very useful as a parameter for potential helicopter
landing zones. Areas reported on APAN as landing zones used by USMC do
appear in black.
Best wishes,
Jean-Guilhem
