ATKIS-DGM5-Reliefschummerung Saxony-Anhalt

A digital terrain model (DGM) is a digital, numerical model of terrain heights and shapes. The DGM5 relief mummering is derived from the DGM1 with a grid width of 1 m. In the resolution of the DGM5 relief noise, one pixel in the image corresponds to 25 m2 on the Earth's surface. The (grey) value assignment for each grid point is carried out depending on the height difference of neighboring grid points and by illumination with an imaginary light source from the northwest. The surface tint creates a spatial impression of the relative height differences of the terrain. The silting pattern does not provide any information about the absolute height.
