DTMs and Contours
Purpose of a digital terrain model is to:
Pass information about terrain elevations to a computer
Make it possible to compute quantities, draw profiles, classify laser points, visualize the terrain on screen...
Purpose of contours is to:
Be plotted on paper
Pass information about terrain elevations to a human
Contours
A highly accurate model produces ugly contours
Contours can not be accurate and pretty at the same time
You have to balance between accuracy and prettiness when producing contours
Bad model makes good contours !
Contours Laser Data
Ground model from laser data is:
Very accurate
High density
Is noisy – points have elevation variation
Laser data is difficult for producing contours
Difficult to accept how bad you have to make the model to produce good contours
Old mendation
Run smoothing (+- 10 cm tolerance)
Classify model keypoints
Tolerance = 0.3 ... 0.5 * contour interval
New mendation
(Optional) Run smoothing (+- 10 cm tolerance)
Classify contour keypoints
Contour keypoints
Classification which selects points to be a ground model for contour production
Similar to model keypoints but tailored for contours
For smooth, nice looking contours
User controls how big volumetric difference to true ground is allowed
Excess Detail in Contours
Points close to contour elevation cause small detail
Contour keypoints prefers to select points far away from contour elevations
