Hi there,
Can anyone give suggestions about how to report accuracy of a DEM and measurement derived from a DEM?
I have one DEM each for the same study area in two separate years. In each case, one-metre contours and additional planimetric data were used to build a TIN elevation model. The TIN's were converted to grid-type DEM's with two- metre cell size. The two surfaces were compared by subtracting the year1 DEM from the year2 DEM.
How do I go about estimating the accuracy (or error) of each DEM, and the accuracy of difference measurements taken from the two DEM's (i.e., year2 - year1)? Can anyone suggest methodology or references to help with this?
thanks, sarah email. northms@telus.net
