DTM Data in WindPRO - Site near Bergen.

Introduction

The national elevation model for Norway, created by the Norwegian national ordnance survey (Kartverket).
This data-set is stored as a 10 meter grid. It is generated primarily based based on laser scans - and it is continuously updated.
The version distributed in windPRO by EMD was downloaded during late August 2018. We distribute a digital terrain model (DTM10) and a digital surface model (DOM10)

Availability from within WindPRO

The data are available directly from within windPRO in 10 meter resolution.
The data can be accessed from the online-services in the following objects:

  • Line Object (with purpose set to height contour lines)
  • Elevation Grid Object

Data Type

The DTM/DOM Elevation Data are delivered as gridded data with a spatial resolution of 10 meters. As a part of the processing of the DTM/DOM Elevation Data from our EMD server, the user has an option of choosing whether the data downloaded should be received as either raw gridded data or converted to height contour lines. In order to use the data for energy yield calculations, the data must be converted to contours. For maximum spatial accuracy, we deliver the data in 3 utm-zones. Coordinate systems used: ETRS 89 UTM Zone 32/33/35 (EPSG:25832, EPSG:25833, EPSG:25835)

Coverage

DTM/DOM-Elevation data, covers mainland Norway, see here.
