pDEMtools: conveniently search, download, and process ArcticDEM and REMA products

Chudley, Thomas R.; Howat, Ian M.

Abstract

pdemtools is a Python package designed for accessing, processing, and handling high-resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the polar regions from the ArcticDEM and Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica (REMA) projects. Tools are provided to search, filter, and download ArcticDEM and REMA data, as well as to fulfill common preprocessing requirements such as geoid correction, coregistration, and calculating terrain attributes. The aim is to allow users to quickly move beyond basic DEM data management into their own analyses.
