Investigation into the automatic generation of heights of different Danish landscape types

This article describes an investigation using automatic generation of heights over a typical Danish landscape. For this investigation the program Match-T has been used. The investigation is carried out over a test area of 3.5 x 4.0 km. The area represents more than 80 % of what could usually be termed typical Danish landscape. The test area is divided into five different landscape types. Over this area an experienced operator has measured points as a reference and each landscape type is registered by a code. Different parameters have varying influences on the accuracy. In this investigation a closer look into the influence of the accuracy of different flying heights, resolution of the images and grid sizes has been done. The accuracy obtained from the different parameters compared against the five landscape types will be studied. The goal of this investigation is to find the best combination between landscape types, flying heights, image resolutions and grid sizes.
