DHM25 Hillshade

The DHM25 hillshade is derived from the digital elevation model DHM25. It illustrates the surface relief of Switzerland and of the neighbouring territories . A hillshade is derived from the elevation model by calculating the exposure of the surface to sunlight at a certain angle. The calculated angle of the sun for the DHM25 Hillshade is at azimuth 315° (northwest), at a vertical angle of 45°. The digital elevation model DHM25 is a height matrix with 25 m grid.
