Overview

DEMcompare is a python software that aims at comparing two DEMs together.

A DEM is a 3D computer graphics representation of elevation data to represent terrain.

DEMcompare has several characteristics:

  • Works whether or not the two DEMs share common format projection system, planimetric resolution, and altimetric unit.
  • Performs the coregistration based on the Nuth & Kääb universal coregistration method.
  • Offers two coregistration modes to choose which of both DEMs is to be adapted during coregistration.
  • Provides a wide variety of standard metrics which can be classified.
  • Classifies the stats by slope ranges by default, but one can provide any other data to classify the stats.
