The digital elevation models (DEM) are 2 m resolution raster elevation products that were generated from the Ontario Classified Point Cloud (Imagery-Derived) data. The point clouds were created via a pixel-autocorrelation process from the stereo aerial photography of the Geospatial Ontario (GEO) imagery program. The DEM does not represent a full ‘bare-earth’ elevation surface. There are areas where there are very few points classified as ground and interpolation has occurred across the resulting voids. Points classified as ground have not been assessed for accuracy to determine if they represent true ground features. Some features are still raised above ground surface, such as larger buildings, larger forest stands and other raised features. This data is for geospatial tech specialists, and is used by government, municipalities, conservation authorities and the private sector for land use planning and environmental analysis.

The Provincial Digital Elevation Model (PDEM) is a general purpose dataset designed to represent true ground elevation and is based on best-available data across the province. This dataset has not been conditioned for any specific application.

The Ontario Lidar Digital Terrain Model (DTM) Geospatial Ontario (GEO) Dataset is a raster product representing the bare-earth terrain derived from a classified lidar point cloud. The DTM data is available in the form of 1-km by 1-km non-overlapping tiles grouped into packages for download. This dataset is a compilation of lidar data from multiple acquisition projects, as such specifications, parameters and sensors may vary by project. This data is for geospatial tech specialists, and is used by government, municipalities, conservation authorities and the private sector for land use planning and environmental analysis.

A digital elevation model (DEM) is a 3D representation of the Earth's surface, created from terrain elevation data. These DEMs were generated from LiDAR and LAS data was gathered for the City of Philadelphia

High resolution (1-2m spacing) digital elevation models (DEMs) covering portions of the state. The DEMs are derived from LIDAR data and depict the bare earth terrain in raster format. Multiple agencies (Federal, State, and County) provided the data. The DEMs can be downloaded through the NYS Orthos Online app (http://orthos.dhses.ny.gov/).

Digital Elevation Models (DEM) are derived from Spatial Services’ (SS) point cloud data. The DEM is a bare earth representation of the earth’s surface where all the above ground feature has been removed. DEM derived from LiDAR: 1m or 2m resolution. Data is not hydrologically enforced (breaklines) or hydrologically conditioned (identification and analysis of sinks). DEM derived photogrammetry: data is 5m resolution. Areas of no data caused by steep slopes, shadow and vegetation have been interpolated or filled-in with another data source and will not be as accurate as the bare open ground areas. The data is not hydrologically enforced (breaklines) or hydrologically conditioned identification and analysis of sinks).
