SECOND” Digital Elevation Model of Australia, and their effects on gravimetric terrain corrections
نویسندگان
چکیده
Large gradients, when calculated by a first-difference method, have been detected in the 9 arc-second National Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of Australia released by the Australian Surveying and Land Information Group. Gradient values implied by the mean elevations in the DEM between adjacent grid cells of up to 74° have been observed, most notably in Australia’s more mountainous regions in the east. Comparisons with topographic maps indicate that these are anomalous gradients in the DEM that are not present in the actual topography. It is recommended that the first-difference method is used to test DEMs before they are used to compute terrain corrections.

Practical aspects of terrain correction in airborne gravity gradiometry
We study the practical aspects of performing terrain corrections in airborne/seaborne gravity gradient surveys in terms of necessary spatial extents and required resolution of digital elevation models. We develop a new and practical method for performing terrain corrections through an extension of Parker’s 1972 method for calculating potential anomalies in the Fourier domain. We then study and ...

The Digital terrain model is an important geospatial product used as the basis of many practical projects related to geospatial information. Nowadays, a dense point cloud can be generated using the LiDAR data. Actually, the acquired point cloud of the LiDAR, presents a digital surface model that contains ground and non-ground objects. The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach of ex...
متن کاملAn Improved Approach for Terrain Correction: Application to Northeast Asia’s Highest Peak (Mt. Jade, Taiwan)
Mt. Jade (or "Yushan" in Chinese) is the highest peak in northeast Asia. The topography is very rugged and complicated. Such terrain makes it difficult to obtain the correct results for terrain corrections (TCs). This paper developed an improved approach, named cone-section method, to compute the TCs of the Mt. Jade area using a high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM) on a 9″ × 9″ grid. T...
