Rhineland-Palatinate Elevation Model
Introduction
The digital elevation model for the German federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate is derived from open geodata specific to this region. The original model in 25m grid-resolution is provided by the Landesamt für Vermessung und Geobasisinformation. In windPRO we currently have the version from year 2017 in 25m grid resolution.
