26 Digital Elevation Model Partially Accuracy is lower than target. Oct. 1, 2018, 12:32 p.m. Sept. 24, 2025, 12:18 p.m.
379 Digital Elevation Model Partially Partially compliant as the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer Global Digital Elevation Map (ASTER GDEM) coverage is between 83°N and 83°S and the vertical accuracy is at the limit required, that is, 20 meters at 95 % confidence. Oct. 1, 2018, 12:32 p.m. Sept. 24, 2025, 12:18 p.m.
403 Digital Elevation Model Fully Digital Elevation Model used for image production purposes. Oct. 1, 2018, 12:32 p.m. Sept. 24, 2025, 12:18 p.m.
213 Digital Elevation Model Partially Vertical accuracy is lower than target, therefore not fully compliant. Oct. 1, 2018, 12:32 p.m. Sept. 24, 2025, 12:18 p.m.
