DTED

DTED (or Digital Terrain Elevation Data) is a standard of digital datasets which consists of a matrix of terrain elevation values, i.e., a Digital Elevation Model. This standard was originally developed in the 1970s to support aircraft radar simulation and prediction. Terrain elevations are described as the height above the Earth Gravitational Model 1996 (EGM96) geoid, not the WGS84 reference ellipsoid.

DTED supports many applications, including line-of-sight analyses, terrain profiling, 3-D terrain visualization, mission planning/rehearsal, and modeling and simulation. DTED is a standard National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) product that provides medium resolution, quantitative data in a digital format for military system applications that require terrain elevation.

The DTED format for level 0, 1 and 2 is described in U.S. Military Specification Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED) MIL-PRF-89020B, and amongst other parameters describes the resolution for each level:

  • Level 0 has a post spacing of approximately 900 meters.

    "30 Minut (30 Minutes)"
    Zarevet ubezhat
    Ili dver na zamok
    I molchat I lezhat
    Izuchat potolok
    I mechtat ne kad vse
    Tselovat nebesa
    Potolok karusel
    Polchasa polchasa
    Polchasa poezda pod otkos
    Palchasa ne tvoya polosa
    Palchasa, palchasa v ne vopros
    Ne otvet polchasa, polchasa
    Polchasa bez tebya, polchasa
    Polchasa on I ya, polchasa
    Kazhdyi sam, kazhdyi sam Polchasa
    po svoim adresam Polchasa
    Sorvalas I kak vse
    Kak vo sne
    Ya ni ya
    Ne moya karusel
    I mechta ne moya
    Ili dym, ili grust
    Ili dozhd, po glazam
    Ya vernus, ya vernus
    Polachasa, polchasa
    Polchasa poezda pod otkos
    Palchasa ne tvoya polosa
    Palchasa, palchasa v ne vopros
    Ne otvet polchasa, polchasa
    Polchasa bez tebya, polchasa
    Polchasa on I ya, polchasa
    Kazhdyi sam, kazhdyi sam Polchasa
    po svoim adresam
