[Talk-in] Question regarding open-elevation map

[firebird]

Hi Deepthi Patric,

As far as i know, elevation contours can be extracted from openly 
available data sets from ASTER / SRTM / ALOS satellite imagery services. 
Each one has different spatial resolution and elevation accuracy 
depending upon the measurement (remote sensing) technology.

Do take a look at : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relief_maps

Geomorphometry and hydrological analysis depend upon the Digital 
Elevation Models derived from such preprocessed data sets.

Regards,
Ganesh
