with the specification for the scale 1:10,000 (class B) and 
altimetric accuracy compatible with the specified for scale 
1:25,000 (Class A), it is important to note - as it was 
highlighted in IBGE (2009) - that orthoimages and DEM 
derived from this sensor does not allow the extraction of all 
cartographic features present, typically, in official topographic 
maps at this scales. The spatial resolution of the original image 
(2.5 meters) probably does not permit the identification of 
minor elements. The evaluation effort in this work was focused 
on assessment of the geometry, both planimetric and altimetric 
rather than content / semantics of information. So while an 
assessment focusing on the feature extraction/interpretability of 
the Cartosat-1 data is not done, it is estimated that its use allows 
obtaining cartographic features compatible with the scale 
1:50,000.
