21 June 2010 - The TanDEM-X, twin satellite to TerraSAR-X, was launched successfully early this morning from Baikonur in Kazachstan.
Together, the two satellites will spend three years collecting stereo radar data for a global digital elevation model of the Earth's entire landmass. This DEM will feature a global homogeneity and a relative accuracy of better than 2 m (10 m absolute) for a 12 m grid.
Infoterra will be conducting the commercial marketing of this DEM.
