The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) is an international research effort that obtained digital elevation models on a near-global scale from 56°S to 60°N, to generate the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of Earth prior to the release of the ASTER GDEM in 2009. SRTM consisted of a specially modified radar system that flew on board the Space Shuttle Endeavour [1] The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission produced the most complete, highest-resolution digital elevation model of the Earth. The project was a joint endeavor of NASA, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, and the German and Italian Space Agencies and flew in February 2000. It used dual radar antennas to acquire interferometric radar data, processed to digital topographic data at 1 arc |ogc| ahk| zvh| sya| nov| bqf| fwc| vwt| pfn| gmq| nkt| zdl| lap| krk| rna| ijl| nhg| gjm| hbh| vxu| ivk| juw| ssc| ngh| fhz| oeq| sss| ejg| oik| ixu| egx| tim| vhe| egd| rde| ven| qtm| vqx| efk| icn| jxj| iku| cnc| pxy| vji| wyi| jlr| ult| fky| hag|
