Abstract Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is a form of topographic data which contains ground height or elevation. Usually, the DEM is used for generating a digital orthophotomap and 3-D view for terrain analysis in geomorphology and geological studies, etc.

In remote sensing studies, DEM can play a role as one of the supporting data for more information in the classification procedure and others. DEM can also be merged with the remote sensing data to generate superior presentation. --authors' abstract
