Space-based Information:The accuracy of the TanDEM-X 90m DEM relates to the TanDEM-X 12m (0.4 arcsec) DEM products from which it has been derived. For the 12m DEM: the Absolute horizontal and vertical accuracy is below 10m. The relative vertical accuracy expressed as linear errors at 90% confidence level (LE90) for slopes at or below 20% at 2m, and for slopes above 20% at 4m.

The TanDEM-X 90m DEM product is delivered in a compressed ZIP (*zip) format. Each zip file contains a main folder, which contains basically the meta data of the product in XML (*.xml) format. In the main folder there are 3 subfolders:
