You cant separate this from "for where". National coverage is available with 20m contour lines from Linz topo, available both as georeferenced raster scans and as vector contours. These are the raw data - lines traced from photogrammetry rather than calculated from a DTM. However, for numerous areas, particularly urban areas, there are DTMs with resolution of about 2m or contours at I think a 5m. (I don't have a catalogue of whats available handy). These are from the local authority. I havent yet looked at what might be available GRACE satellite altimetry so far... Bits of the country are also covered by SAR. ---------------------------------------------------------- Phil Scadden, Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences 764 Cumberland St, Private Bag 1930, Dunedin, New Zealand Ph +64 3 4799663, fax +64 3 477 5232 _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi
