PlanetDEM – Enhanced Global Digital Elevation Model
Rely on trusted elevation data for all your projects and solutions
All the Benefits of our Global Elevation Data
Global coverage
We offer a complete pole-to-pole coverage of all emerged land with a 30-meter grid spacing.
Seamless and reliable data
Benefit from totally enhanced, void-filled and corrected elevation data processed from publicly available sources for seamless and homogeneous coverage.
30m and 90m resolutions available off-the-shelf
PlanetDEM elevation data are available at 30 meters and 90 meters based on DTED standards (military standard), as a digital surface model (DSM) that includes natural and built features on the Earth’s surface.
Ready-to-use for all types of applications
Ideally suited for mapping projects in GIS environments, orthorectification processes, terrain modeling applications, and military simulation and training.
Focus on your business, we take care of the data
