Surveying works and topography from high-resolution satellite images, Ministry of Energy and Water, Kabul, Afghanistan
Based on high-resolution stereoscopic satellite images in combination with terrestrial and bathymetric surveys, a topographical planning basis (digital terrain model DTM) was created for the Ministry of Energy and Water, Afghanistan.
The technological progress with regard to remote sensing and the constantly improving quality of satellite images makes it possible, using this data, to create a highly accurate topographical planning basis for the Baghdara project. Georeferencing of the satellite data was carried out using terrestrial surveys (e.g. GCP).
