Dutch DEM (called AHN) Detailed and exact height measuring
50 cm grid size
Excellent grid support in MapInfo / Discover File -> Open -> ‘Grid Images’
Gridding in Surfaces module
SDM - LIDAR
LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging)
Large and Multi-file Gridding tool Containing 40 million points
Gridding took ca. 12 minutes
