It includes vegetation, tree canopy, buildings, and\nother man-made surface features. The 2m asset is a collection of strips rather\nthan a single mosaic due to projection differences between strips.\n\nStrip DEM files correspond to the overlapping area of the input stereopair\nimage swaths as they are collected by DigitalGlobe's constellation of\npolar-orbiting satellites. Strip DEM dimensions will vary according to the\nsatellite sensor that acquired the images and the off-nadir angle of\ncollection. Most strips are between 16km and 18km in width, and 110km and\n120km in length.\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n2 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Units | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------------|-------|------------|-------------------------------------------------|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| `elevation` | m | meters | Elevation |\n| `matchtag` | | meters | Bitmask raster indicating DEM pixels processing |\n| Bitmask for matchtag - Bit 0: Pixel processing - 0: Pixels have been interpolated - 1: Pixels are derived from a stereo match ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nNational Science Foundation (PGC's primary funding source) policy requires\nresearchers to acknowledge NSF support in all publications, web pages, and\nmedia interviews.\n\nBy using PGC data in Earth Engine, users agree to cite PGC\nand its sponsorship by the NSF.
