Abstract

This paper introduces an analysis method of the digital elevation model map based on the Geotiff format, through the algorithm of data read, coordinate transformation, numerical interpolation of map, convert to the new map format which can be executed efficiently in broadcasting network planning software, to achieve the accurate prediction coverage field strength with radio waves diffractions correction which base on digital elevation model.
