*Abstract*

A decade-long partnership between Airbus and the German Space Agency (DLR)
has led to the generation of the world’s most complete and accurate Digital
Elevation Model: WorldDEM. The great success and almost universal adoption
of the data from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) has only led
to a greater thirst for more up-to-date elevation data, everywhere in the
world. Coming 15 years after SRTM, WorldDEM provides a new global dataset
with a higher resolution product, with a complete pole to pole coverage.

The presentation will describe how the WorldDEM data was acquired,
processed and edited. The 3 available versions of WorldDEM will be
introduced (Core, Hydro-enforced and Digital Terrain Model DTM) Comparisons
of WorldDEM to other elevation datasets will be provided. Demonstrations of
WorldDEM data in several applications will be provided, as well as
information on how to procure WorldDEM.
