Hi Nick (and everyone else),
Its great to hear that things are moving forward in the software side of things.
Nick: Elevation data is quite restricted in Sweden for what was until recently historical reasons…
I can however probably dig out the cross-sections which will include topography. I’ll put you in contact with one of our researchers who you’ve also met in Scotland, David Gustafsson. He is also a satellite guy so I’m sure you have a lot to discuss.
We are not likely to enforce the use of GPS anytime soon in Sweden, however, we are slowly moving towards using it a lot more often for the following reasons.
- Surface velocity
- Input to our flood forecast modelling
- QA/QC
Most of our RS5 measurements are being done with RTK-GNSS now even.
