Introduction
The Luxembourgish elevation model in 5m grid resolution is a digital terrain model produced by the Luxembourgish government through its ‘Administration du cadastre et de la topographie’. The model is named BD-L-MNT5. Spatial coverage is for the national territory of Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The data available in windPRO was accessed during early 2019.
Dataset Overview
- Spatial Coverage: Grand Duchy of Luxembourg
- Resolution: 5 m
- Data-type: Digital Terrain Model (DTM)
- Coordinate system (source data):
- Horizontal: Luxembourg 1930 / Gauss (EPSG:2169)
- Vertical: Luxembourg (NG95) system - referring to the tide gauge in Amsterdam (Normal Null - Pegel Amsterdam)
- Version: Data downloaded in early 2019.
- Vertical Accuracy: Accuracy of the model is stated to be in the order of 1 to several meters
Availability from within windPRO
The data are available directly from within windPRO in 5-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
