Vertical accuracy assessment of freely available global DEMs (FABDEM, Copernicus DEM, NASADEM, AW3D30 and SRTM) in flood-prone environments

ABSTRACTFlood models rely on accurate topographic data representing the bare earth ground surface. In many parts of the world, the only topographic data available are the free, satellite-derived global Digital Elevation Models (DEMs). However, these have well-known inaccuracies due to limitations of...
