INTRODUCTION
1!1 B"#$%&'()* +' +- .+(*/
A digital elevation model (DEM) is a digital model or 3D representation of a terrain's
surface commonly for a planet (including Earth), moon, or asteroid created from
terrain elevation data (Wiipedia)! DEM is often used as a generic term for D"Ms and
D#Ms, only representing height information $ithout any further definition a%out the
surface!All datasets $hich are captured $ith satellites, airplanes or other flying platforms are
originally D"Ms (lie "M or the A"#E& DEM)! t is possi%le to compute a D#M
from high resolution D"M datasets $ith comple algorithms (*i et al!, +-)!
A DEM can %e represented as a raster (a grid of s.uares, also no$n as a heightmap
$hen representing elevation) or as a vector/%ased triangular irregular net$or (#0)! #he
#0 DEM dataset is also referred to as a primary (measured) DEM, $hereas the &aster
DEM is referred to as a secondary (computed) DEM! (Wiipedia)#he DEM could %e ac.uired through techni.ues such as photogrammetry, lidar, f"A&,
land surveying, etc! (*i et al! +-)! DEMs are commonly %uilt using data collected using
remote sensing techni.ues, %ut they may also %e %uilt from land surveying! DEMs are
used often in geographic information systems, and are the most common %asis for
digitally produced relief maps! While a D"M may %e useful for landscape modeling, citymodeling and visuali1ation applications, a D#M is often re.uired for flood or drainage
modeling, land/use studies, geological applications, and other applications!2lder methods of generating DEMs often involve interpolating digital contour maps that
may have %een produced %y direct survey of the land surface! #he .uality of a DEM is a
measure of ho$ accurate elevation is at each piel (a%solute accuracy) and ho$
accurately is the morphology presented (relative accuracy)!
ommon uses of DEMs include Etracting terrain parameters for geomorphology,
Modeling $ater flo$ for hydrology or mass movement, reation of relief maps,&endering of 3D visuali1ations, &ectification of aerial photography4satellite imagery,
eographic nformation "ystems ("), *ine/of/sight analysis, 5ase mapping, "urface
Analysis etc!

CHALLENGES, SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
?!1 C";;-)%-.
#he process of digiti1ing (especially for contours) is rigorous, time consuming as it taes more
time to complete a feature vectori1ation! nterpretation of results also posed a serious challenge
as DEM maps $ere difficult to interpret! #hese pro%lems $ere solved %y reading relevant
materials, using Arc"can for contours and Arc"cene $as used to help in understanding the
DEMs produced!
?! S(22"&/
rom the digital elevation models (DEM) of the study area produced, there $as noticea%le
difference %et$een DEM map produced using #0 method and that of the grid s.uare method!
#hese maps represent the terrain surface of the study area, $hich is %etter than other surface
models techni.ues! #he generated DEMs helped $ith understanding of the elevation
characteristics of the study area!
?!3 C')#;(.')
DEMs are needed in numerous human disciplines such as Military operations, Engineering,
#elecommunications, 7r%an 6lanning, 6recision Agriculture, &esources Management, orestry,
lood management, Disaster monitoring and management etc! #his study has sho$n the use of
contour lines and spot height in generating digital elevation models of any part of the country!
#he data used had sho$n that spot heights and contour lines are %est for representing surfaces!
#his study has also sho$n the importance of " as a tool in the production of Digital ElevationModel maps that depict the real $orld earth surface!
