NEXTmap 5 metre Digital Terrain Model
Prices start from £10
Features and benefits
NEXTMap Britain brings you the most current, comprehensive, accurate and affordable digital elevation and image data of England, Wales and Scotland, a total of 231,326 sq. km.
The Digital Terrain Model supplied here includes levels on a 5 metre grid, representing a 'bare-earth' model extracted from the original Digital Surface Model using Intermap's proprietary TerrainFit® software.
This data offers an extremely cost effective means of obtaining an intial indication of a site's vertical position and characteristics. With a tested 95 percent accuracy of ± 1.5 metres for the majority of the dataset in unobstructed and moderately sloping terrain, this dataset represents the highest consistent detail supplied for the UK.
NOTE: As with all detailed datasets, users should ensure they fully understand the nature of the data and it's limitations before use. As such, a very helpful user guide may be found at the bottom of this page.
This dataset is not licensed for use in flood modelling and should this be the intended purpose, please contact us directly.

Key Points
| Mapping type | Height information |
|---|---|
| Style | X,Y,Z format points either as a listing or a vector file. |
| Used in | Surface modelling and site investigation/assessment |
| Can be put into | A number of CAD (Computer Aided Design) and GIS (Geographical Information Systems) |
| Combinations | This data becomes particularly powerful when combined with surface mapping whether it be vector or raster. Great examples include the high detail of Ordnance Survey's OS MasterMap property level topographic mapping or for a more instantly meaningful model aerial imagery such as Getmapping's 25cm resolution product. |
| Available as | CSV, DXF, DWG, GML |
| Cannot | This data requires software to view and even small areas contain a lot of data requiring up to date computer hardware. |
| Also consider | Our mapping combinations available as ready to view PDFs or as component data |
