[Qgis-user] Eliminate GAPS SRTM 30 metros

Hi, 
Thank for that data link. I did not know about it.  I am currently doing a PhD on various publicly available  DEMs in Canada.  My research focuses in  Canada because SRTMs are more precise in the north and south (tighter orbit, more data, leaf off).  All this is better for the SRTM radar.   I should have more results in about one month and I will submit my results for publication.  Hopefully, I will also have the latest NASA DEM is my study as they should be publish in June. 
So far, SRTM 30 and 90m  have about haft the error of aster gdem2.  There is not much loss with the 90 m srtm but the 90 m pixel does suffer in mountainous regions. Most of the error from the ASTER data is cause clearly by the tree cover.  The SRTM radar has a good vegetation penetration in Canada (leaf off).  Aster is made from near infra red images and therefore has no canopy penetration. But radar is generally smother partly because smoothing is part of the data noise reduction in radar images.  ASTER has a sharper image resolution even if the pixel size is the same size but this comes at the expense of extra noise. 
I will be happy to communicate more result as I get them.

Hi,
ALOS World 3D - 30m (AW3D30) data may be also considered an
alternative ( http://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/aw3d30/ ), for the time
being already available for substantial parts of Southern Asia and
South America. Informations on how resolution and error margins of the
dataset compare to ASTERDEM or SRTM30 will be appreciated.
Cheers
Thomas
