The Establishment of the Digital Elevation Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

Contour line map and digital terrain model are widely used in practical work. With the rapid development of computer technology, computer graphics and geographic information system, they become more and more practical and their roles have become more prominent. Contour line has incomparable advantage of expressing both qualitative and quantitative information especially in the terrain analysis. Many algorithms of contour line map are automatically generated based on the digital terrain model.
