Estonian Elevation Models
Introduction
The Estonian elevation models in 5m and 25m grid resolutions are digital terrain models produced by the Republic of Estonia Land Board. Spatial coverage is for the whole of Estonia. The models are created from LIDAR surveys – where 1/4 of Estonian territory is laser-scanned every year. The data available in windPRO were procured during May 2019.
Availability from within windPRO
The data are available directly from within windPRO in 5 or 25-meter resolution. The data can be accessed from the online-services in the following objects:
- Line Object (with purpose to height contour lines)
- Elevation Grid Object
Reference Systems
The following reference systems were used in the source data:
- Estonian Coordinate System of 1997 (EPSG: 3301)
- Vertical: Vertical datum used is EH2000 height system (EVRS - European Vertical Reference System) - based on NAP (Normaal Amsterdam Peil).
