Description
The project aims to provide the scientific evaluation of TanDEM-X data by studying the Nullarbor Plain and relate all the remote-sensing findings by an extensive field work. We will also evaluate the TanDEM-X data with other available DEMs for this region and also compare its usefulness with satellite images.
