Abstract :
The main product of the TanDEM-X mission is an interferometric DEM product that is finally calibrated due to residual systematic offsets and tilts and where different, generally two coverages, are mosaicked. Above this, a water mask is provided to support later editing of rough water areas. In this presentation the commissioning phase work to set the DEM production chain into operation is described and the first commissioning phase products are shown.
