Digital Terrain Model (DTM)

This Digital Terrain Model (DTM) uses sonar technology.  I selected this map for the blog because it looks like a Digital Elevation Model (DEM).  The DEM uses a different technology with a similar concept; using the reflection of concentrated beams to detect features on a far away surface.
