Geographic accuracy:

This dataset has errors in the 5 m contourline. It is strongly advised not to use it for geoprocessing or statistical purposes. The resolution of grid data is 90 to 100 meters. Its geometrical accuracy in x,y and z does not exceed 5 meters for lowlying areas and 15 meters for mountainous areas.

MONA PRO Europe© is copyrighted. A multi-posts "agency" license has been acquired for the European Commission, which makes the product available for applications developed within the European Commission. Dissemination outside the European Commission is restricted to raster representations (i.e. images) of the DTM. However, most of contour lines are copyright-free and publicly available.

Data sources

EUROSION was a project commissioned by the General Directorate Environment of the European Commission 2002-2004. The Digital Terrain Model, MONA PRO Europe, is a copyrighted product provided by Geosys Data. To derive contour lines of 5 and 10 meters, the data were locally complemented with other sources, namely national DTM and digitised topographical maps.

Directorate-General for Environment (DG ENV)

Additional information

Elevation data are provided in two forms: A Digital Terrain Model (DTM) which consists in a grid data of altitudes with a 90 to 100m resolution 5 meters height contour lines, in vector format, derived from the DTM and completed where needed with other sources of data.
