Error Estimation of Aster Gdem for Regional Applications - Comparison to Aster Dem and Als Elevation Models

The last 20 years show an enormous resolution improvement of worldwide available Digital Elevation Models. At present, the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) with a resolution of 30 m shows an evolution from the GTOPO 30 model (1000 m) of the year 1996 and the SRTM model (90 m) of the year 2000. However, little is known about the accuracy of the ASTER GDEM itself and for the official t...
