Digital terrain model

The digital terrain model (DTM) is a simplified representation of ground altimetry. The available data is in the form of an irregular triangular mesh (TIN). This is polygon numerical geographic data constructed by triangulating a set of points. The vertices are connected to a series of segments to form a mesh of triangles of different dimensions.

This representation can be used as a basis for the 3D buildings of the digital base model.

It should be noted that the data made available by the City is proposed for planning purposes and not for construction purposes given the associated decimeter details.
