Reference DEM for Back Geocoding

Open loreabad6 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

For Norway, the SRTM does not cover the northern areas, hence the use of the DEM should default to the Copernicus DEM "demName", "Copernicus 30m Global DEM". For Austria, the SRTM 1 sec should work properly, as SRTM 1Sec HGT.

To do:

  • [ ] Test external DEM use, so for example ArcticDEM could be used
  • [x] Check parameters to change when selecting each type of DEM

It is possible to use a external DEM file in theory. We should test it. We can pass the file to externalDEMFile and the demName parameter to External DEM.

Seems like using a too high resolution DEM will not be useful, so resampling would be needed. See here.
