The Digital Elevation Model over Europe from the GMES RDA project (EU-DEM v1.1) is a Digital Surface Model (DSM) representing the first surface as illuminated by the sensors. The EU-DEM v1.0 dataset is a realisation of the Copernicus programme, managed by the European Commission.The EU-DEM v1.1 is a hybrid product based on SRTM and ASTER GDEM data fused by a weighted averaging approach.

The Digital Elevation Model over Europe from the GMES RDA project (EU-DEM) is a Digital Surface Model (DSM) representing the first surface as illuminated by the sensors. EU-DEM covers the EEA39 countries and it has been produced by a consortium led by Indra. Intermap edited the EUDEM and AGI provided the water mask. The EU-DEM is a 3D raster dataset with elevations captured at 1 arc second postings (2.78E-4 degrees) or about every 30 metre. It is a hybrid product based on SRTM and ASTER GDEM data fused by a weighted averaging approach. The EU-DEM is generated as a contiguous dataset divided into 1 degree by 1 degree tiles corresponding to the SRTM naming convention. These tiles have then been aggregated into 5°x5° tiles which have been projected to ETRS89-LAEA by JRC. The resulting tiles (1000x1000km) are made available as well as a mosaic of them. The vertical unit of this DSM is metre. The tiles are provided as GeoTIFF with LZW compression. The mosaic is provided as GeoTIFF with DEFLATE compression. Ownership of EU-DEM belongs to European Commission, DG Enterprise and Industry.
