Dataset description

The digital terrain elevation model (DGM) describes the earth’s surface (natural soil, without vegetation) in the form of dots arranged in a regular grid and georeferenced in position and height. Additional terrain structures such as fracture lines, shape lines and distinctive individual points complement the regular elevation grid and provide detailed information on Austria’s topography. From the digital terrain height model, a grid with a selectable grid width is interpolated. This elevation grid is used to calculate orthophotos and for various forms of terrain representation.

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.

Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.

Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.

Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
