Detailed elevation data
We have collected the most detailed elevation data available on a national scale. This data in full resolution is the main input to all the analyses we do.
Enriched with culverts
The elevation data is enriched with information about culverts providing an even better assessment of surface water flow.
Detailed land cover
From detailed aerial images we produce land cover maps and use them for modelling infiltration.
Building information
Information about buildings is available to create illustrative visualisation and help with damage assessment.
Beautiful contour lines
We have computed beautiful contour lines at detailed scales to help you visualise the most significant topographic features on top of other data.
