description Have you ever lain awake at night wondering how the Danish Geodata Agency uses its own and others' geodata out there 'in the real life'? Have you pondered how Denmark's Elevation Model can be useful in emergency management when the forces of nature rage, when a gale blows, it rains and it is dark and cold?

Have you ever heard about the rubberboot index? Will your mother-in-law be of any use when the police phones at midnight? Are there any answers to these questions?
