چکیده

With begin of 2013 DEM production started with the generation of the Intermediate TanDEM-X DEM (IDEM) for selected science and commercial test sites. This paper gives an overview of the Intermediate DEM production that took place from end of 2012 until July 2013. It describes the DEM production process and the lessons learnt by the IDEM phase. Since autumn 2013 the final DEM generation has begun in flat areas.

The Global Tandem-x Dem: Production Status and First Validation Results

The TanDEM-X mission will derive a global digital elevation model (DEM) with satellite SAR interferometry. Two radar satellites (TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X) will map the Earth in a resolution and accuracy with an absolute height error of 10m and a relative height error of 2m for 90% of the data. In order to fulfill the height requirements in general two global coverages are acquired and processed....

Quality assessment of first TanDEM-X DEMs for different terrain types

The main product of the TanDEM-X mission is a global interferometric digital elevation model (DEM) that is finally calibrated due to residual systematic offsets and tilts. For the final DEM product single acquisitions (socalled data takes) are calibrated and merged to tiles of a size of 1°x1°. Finally the globe will mostly be covered with two acquisitions. The quality of the calibration of the ...

Evaluation of DEM generation based on Interferometric SAR using TanDEM-X data in Tokyo

This study is focused on the evaluation of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for Tokyo, Japan from data collected by the recently launched TerraSAR add-on for Digital Elevation Measurements (TanDEM-X), satellite of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). The aim of the TanDEM-X mission is to use Interferometric SAR techniques to generate a consistent high resolution global DEM dataset. In order to gen...

TanDEM-X DEM Calibration Concept and Height References

TanDEM-X is the first bistatic space borne SAR mission [1]. It is formed by adding a second, almost identical spacecraft to TerraSAR-X and flying them in a closely controlled formation with typical distances between 250 m and 500 m. The primary goal of the mission is the derivation of a high-precision global Digital Elevation Model (DEM) according to HRTI level 3 quality [2]. To achieve this ac...

First Data Acquisition and Processing Concepts for the Tandem-x Mission

TanDEM-X is a German Public Private Partnership project between DLR and EADS Astrium for a novel satellite constellation based on TerraSAR-X with the goal to generate a global digital elevation model (DEM) according to the HRTI-3 standard, i.e. 10 m horizontal spacing and 1-2 meter vertical accuracy. TerraSAR-X is a civil German X-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite to be launched in ...
