Esri together with the ArcticDEM project has released the largest addition of new elevation models to the project thus far. The ArcticDEM project is an ongoing collaboration between National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), the Polar Geospatial Center, and Esri to produce high-resolution elevation models to support scientific and national security implications in the Arctic. Coupled with the accessibility of Esri’s online platform, ArcticDEM can meet the need for high-quality elevation data in remote locations and provide accurate measurement of topographic changes. “The latest release of this elevation data is the largest collection to date for this project,” said Don Kerr, Chief of News and Information, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. “The release includes a much broader area of the Arctic geography than ever before, comprising more populated areas that will see a substantive benefit from access to this kind of detailed location data.”
