Finnish Elevation Model
Introduction
The Finland/Suomi 10m elevation model is a digital surface model produced by the National Land Survey of Finland (Maanmittauslaitos, MML). The elevation data is in a 10m x 10m grid and have a spatial coverage for the whole of Finland. The main parts of the model data were produced from contour lines and ground control points originating from the topographical databases and maps at the National Land Survey of Finland. Small parts of the model were derived from a higher resolution model in 2 m (see link below). The accuracy of this product is: 1.4 m - given by the 95% quantile and 2.0m - given by the 99% quantile.
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 to height contour lines)
