ICESAT-2 ALTIMETRY AS GEODETIC CONTROL [PDF]
Abstract. Digital elevation models (DEMs) are of fundamental importance for a large variety of scientific and commercial applications. Many geoscience studies require the most precise and current information about the Earth’s topography. Independent quality assessments of these DEMs are crucial to their appropriate use in land process studies, as ...
