applications requiring bald-earth elevations, it would be necessary to remove the trees and buildings from this DSM. The
cost differential between the radar and laser-derived products makes the latter an attractive alternative for large area DTM
acquisitions with the above-noted qualifications in forested and urban areas.

Transformation parameters, including geoid heights, were kindly provided to Intermap by Dr. Schleyer of the Landesver-
messungsamt Baden-Württemberg and originated from Dr. R. Jäger of the Fachhochschule Karlsruhe. Part of the work,
reported by the authors of the Karlsruhe University, has been funded by the LVA.
