Abstract

TanDEM-X is an innovative single-pass radar interferometric mission, which is comprised of two formation flying satellites, with the primary goal of generating a global Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of unprecedented accuracy. Between December 2010 and early 2015 all land surfaces have been acquired at least twice, difficult terrain up to seven or eight times and as of September 2016 the final TanDEM-X DEM dataset is available for download. This paper provides a final quality assessment of the TanDEM-X global DEM products with respect to the DEM relative and absolute height accuracy and data coverage both at the global and geocell level.

Keyphrases: Digital Elevation Mode (DEM), Height accuracy, Interferometry, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), voids
