A digital elevation model (DEM) or digital surface model (DSM) is a 3D computer graphics representation of elevation data to represent terrain or overlaying objects, commonly of a planet, moon, or asteroid. A "global DEM" refers to a discrete global grid.
SketchUp is a 3D modeling software that is used to create and manipulate 3D models. It is used in architecture and interior design.. SketchUp is owned by Trimble Inc. The software has a free web-based version, and three paid subscriptions to gain access to applications for Windows and macOS.
GTOPO30 is a digital elevation model for the world, developed by United States Geological Survey (USGS). It has a 30-arc second resolution (approximately 1 km), [1] and is split into 33 tiles stored in the USGS DEM file format. According to DTED and USGS DEM the absolute vertical accuracy of GTOP30 varies from ±30 meters. [2]
A digital outcrop model (DOM), also called a virtual outcrop model, is a digital 3D representation of the outcrop surface, mostly in a form of textured polygon mesh. DOMs allow for interpretation and reproducible measurement [ 1 ] of different geological features, e.g. orientation of geological surfaces, width and thickness of layers.
DTED (or Digital Terrain Elevation Data) is a standard of digital datasets which consists of a matrix of terrain elevation values, i.e., a Digital Elevation Model.This standard was originally developed in the 1970s to support aircraft radar simulation and prediction.

The USGS DEM standard is a geospatial file format developed by the United States Geological Survey for storing a raster-based digital elevation model.It is an open standard, and is used throughout the world.
The product is called a 3D model, while someone who works with 3D models may be referred to as a 3D artist or a 3D modeler. A 3D model can also be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a computer simulation of physical phenomena. 3D models may be created automatically or manually.
