Service Description: Dynamic Image Service covering the Arctic at 2 meters. These overlapping DEMs are generated by PGC from DigitalGlobe satellite imagery and attributed with the acquisition dates so they can be filtered temporally. 2m mosaics created from the 2m data strips are also included. This service provides access to elevation values for use in analysis with server-side functions for slope, aspect, hillshade and contour. For more information on this service, including the terms of use, visit us online at ArcticDEM.
