Layers
This layer is a gap-free and edited version of the TanDEM-X 90m DEM. The TanDEM-X PolarDEM 90m of Antarctica is provided in Antarctic Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG:3031) with a pixel spacing of 90 meters. The DEM elevation values represent the ellipsoidal heights relative to the WGS84 ellipsoid. The majority of the data were acquired between April 2013 to September 2014. The TanDEM-X PolarDEM 90m of Antarctica is split into 4 tiles.
Copied Layer
A hillshade generated from the TanDEM-X PolarDEM 90m elevation layer. This shading represents a combination slope and oblique shading.
Copied Layer
A hillshade generated from the TanDEM-X PolarDEM 90m elevation layer. This multidirectional shading combines of hillshading illuminated from 225 deg, 270 deg, 315 deg, and 360 deg azimuth.
Copied Layer

Further Datasets from Datagroup TanDEM-X
The objective of the TanDEM-X mission (TerraSAR-X add-on for Digital Elevation Measurement) is to produce a highly accurate, three-dimensional image of our Earth with uniform quality and unprecedented accuracy.
Further Datasets of Topic Topography
Topographic data data describing the shape and elevation of the Earth’s surface, such as terrain height, slope, and landforms.
