Anyone know of a way to export a DEM to SRTM .hgt format or to modify a binary format by stipping the header or something clever like that so that it will be read as .hgt. I know none of the tools at my disposal can do it and I suspect maybe Global mapper can? Can someone confirm this?



Thanks

  • Interests:I am a Cartographer with varied experience. I work primarily as a freelancer. In my freelancing career I have worked with Maps.com, Designmaps.com, 3dmaps and various other map making and cartography sites.

    I have varied software experience, however I use almost all the Cartography and quite a few GIS software, Illustrator, Freehand, Adobe Photoshop and Mapinfo to be precise. I have also worked on Microstation and other Intergraph software including Stereo Photogrammetry on ZI Photo Suites. The other software that I utilize for various other tasks specially 3D realism are Global Mapper and Maprenderer 3D.

    Global mapper is a versatile software for various conversion and I found Maprenderer 3D for producing stunning 3D images from height data.

    I am available for freelance work, right from mundane line digitisation to Illustrator / Freehand Cartography. Just send me a mail at promapper@gmail.com

Hi Martin

I have been using Global Mapper for quite some time. It can export it to BIL/BSQ format and it has the Big Endian format also but not in .hgt format. You can try using the BIL format as some hgt data is also avaiable in this format.

Anyone know of a way to export a DEM to SRTM .hgt format or to modify a binary format by stipping the header or something clever like that so that it will be read as .hgt. I know none of the tools at my disposal can do it and I suspect maybe Global mapper can? Can someone confirm this?



Thanks
