| Abstract | Topographic information of landmass is very important in many scientific disciplines and military and industrial sectors. Radar Interferometry with Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is considered to be one of the most modern techniques for acquiring topographic information. A study was conducted using ERS-1/ 2 SAR tandem data to generate the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of a part of Sind river basin, Madhya Pradesh. The performance of mapping procedure was ascertained by checking the altitude of obvious features with conventional topographic maps. When the checkpoints were taken from Survey of India (SOI) toposheet, a root mean square error (RMSE) of 2.7m was obtained. The elevation accuracy was also found to be associated with the land cover type of the area. |
