Abstract
A user group of the Surveying and Mapping Agencies (SMA) of the Federal States of Germany tested several datasets for the derivation of high-quality Digital Terrain Models (DTM) which were collected by laser scanning. Since the results were very promising, a standard procedure for verification and handling of the data was proposed. Because the ground points that are delivered by the contractor are the result of an automated filtering process, final editing is necessary to correct remaining misclassifications. This can be carried out using photogrammetric stereo models or through comparison of the results with large scale topographic maps. Both approaches lead to a high-quality DTM with much shorter production time and less costs as compared to the photogrammetric methods used up to now.
