SURVEYING

DEM delivers better approximate AHD heights on public record
Jonathon Smith and Dr Volker Janssen
This paper outlines how a state-wide Digital Elevation Model (DEM) has been used to deliver better approximate Australian Height Datum (AHD) heights, yielding a homogeneous dataset of known provenance and verifiable quality across New South Wales, Australia ...
