The Canadian Digital Elevation Model (CDEM) is part of Natural Resources Canada's (NRCan) altimetry system and stems from the existing Canadian Digital Elevation Data (CDED). In these data, elevations can be either ground or reflective surface elevations.
The CDEM is comprised of multiple DEMs with varying resolutions. These vary according to latitude and have a base resolution of 0.75 arc-seconds. For more information see the Product Specifications
