Summary
Abstract:
This dataset is a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of Heard Island derived from TerraSAR_X imagery using radargrammetric methods.
At least one pair of ascending images and one pair of descending images were used at each location. The TerraSAR_X stereo pairs were acquired between 31 October 2009 and 14 November 2009. The DEM was created by a contractor for the Australian Antarctic Data Centre. It is ...
