MERIT DEM, um DEM global de alta precisão com resolução de 3 segundos de arco (~90 m no equador) produzido pela eliminação de componentes de erro importantes de DEMs atuais (NASA SRTM3 DEM, JAXA AW3D DEM, Viewfinder Panoramas DEM).
O MERIT DEM separa o viés absoluto, o ruído de faixa, o ruído de speckle e o viés de altura da árvore usando vários conjuntos de dados de satélite e técnicas de filtragem.
Depois da remoção de erros, as áreas terrestres mapeadas com precisão vertical de 2 m ou melhor aumentaram de 39% para 58%. Melhorias significativas foram encontradas em regiões planas, onde erros de altura maiores que a variabilidade da topografia e paisagens, como redes de rios e estruturas de colinas e vales, foram representados com clareza.
"O MERIT DEM foi desenvolvido processando os seguintes produtos como dados de referência:
Elevação em metros, referenciada ao modelo geoidal EGM96.
Termos de Uso
Termos de Uso
A citação do artigo é adequada se você usar apenas o MERIT DEM. Se você pedir ajuda para processamento/edição adicional do conjunto de dados ou se o resultado da sua pesquisa depender muito do produto, o desenvolvedor vai pedir coautoria.
O MERIT DEM é licenciado de acordo com uma licença Creative Commons "CC-BY-NC 4.0" ou
Open Data Commons "Open Database License (ODbL 1.0)". Com uma licença dupla, você
pode escolher a mais adequada.
Licença ODbL 1.0: o uso comercial é permitido, mas os dados derivados com base no MERIT
DEM precisam ser disponibilizados publicamente sob a mesma licença ODbL. Por exemplo, se você criar um mapa de risco de inundação usando o DEM do MERIT e quiser fornecer um serviço COMERCIAL com base nele, precisará disponibilizar o mapa de risco PUBLICAMENTE sob a licença OdBL.
Os termos de licença acima são aplicados aos "dados derivados" com base no MERIT DEM, mas não ao "trabalho produzido / arte" criado com o MERIT DEM (como figuras em um artigo de revista). Os usuários podem ter um
direito autoral da arte e atribuir qualquer licença quando o trabalho produzido
não for considerado como "dados derivados".
Ao fazer o download e usar os dados, o usuário concorda com os termos e condições de uma dessas licenças. Apesar dessa licença sem custo financeiro, pedimos aos usuários que não redistribuam os dados por completo no formato original em outros sites sem a permissão explícita por escrito dos autores.
