Digital Elevation Topographic Data (SHAPE format)

This Digital Elevation Model(DEM) data was created from images of ALOS(Advanced Land Observation Satellite) observed from 2006 to 2011 and covered from 21 to 45 degrees East longitude in north of 73 degrees South latitude with a focus on coastline and mountain area.

Data Format and Specification

This DEM data format is the Shapefile format.
The resolutions of this DEM data are 0.4 second (North-South), 1 second (East-West), and 0.1m (Vertical).
The creating process is based on automatic correlation and plotting of ALOS/PRISM and analysis of ALOS/PALSAR.
