Digital Elevation Model is a description of the relief in the form of a model, where the height of the relief is given for each node of the square grid. The model represents a Digital Relief Model of Slovenia and Digital Elevation Model with grid size 5 x 5 m (DMV 5). Digital Relief Model of Slovenia was established using various geodetic data, using the method of weighted aggregation from resources with some geomorphological corrections. It was made in 2001-2005 and is available as a model in a square grid with a cell size 12.5 m, 25 m and 100 m (DMV 12.5, DMV 25 and DMV 100). DMV 5 was created in 2006 and was regularly maintained until 2014 using cyclic aerial survey of Slovenia (CAS). Some additional data sources were used to produce the model as well. The data of both models are available as ASCII files (y, x, H), for example: 401000.0 112000.0 251.71 401025.0 112000.0 241.03 401050.0 112000.0 230.51 401075.0 112000.0 219.88 401100.0 112000.0 208.31 401125.0 112000.0 195.45
The topographic dataset is maintained in the form of a National Topographic Model (DTM), which contains graphical and attribute topographic data about objects that corresponds to the accuracy of scale 1 : 5 000. The DTM covers topographical data for the entire territory of the Republic of Slovenia. It includes the topographical objects compliant with the INSPIRE guidelines. Part of DTM are also geographical names and digital terrain model. DTM data can be used for geolocation of other spatial data, as a basis for displaying graphical parts of municipal spatial planning acts and for the needs of digital cartography. It is possible to link topographical objects to objects from different other sectors.
