Description
The DTM of the Puglia region is the digital terrain model to use as an elevation baseline for drone flights. Puglia is a predominantly flat and hilly region, with the Gargano and the Murge: the model is designed for pilots and operators who plan missions there in which the drone must follow the contours of the ground.
What is a DTM
A DTM (Digital Terrain Model) describes the contour of the bare ground, without buildings or vegetation. It differs from a DSM (Digital Surface Model), which also includes structures and trees.
What it's for
The model provides a terrain baseline for obtaining telemetry data and for high-precision terrain-following flight, even over uneven surfaces: the drone can thus maintain a constant height above the ground.
Flight planning software such as UgCS imports DEM/DSM (digital elevation model) altitude data in .tif format.
What's included
- 1 file in .tif format, with the model's elevation data;
- 1 file in .tfw format, the georeferencing file that places the .tif in real-world coordinates.
You can also find the terrain models for other regions.
