Hello,

 

would anyone have an idea how to reconstruct an original elevation model if only slope-grid and aspect-grid are available?

 

I am looking for a smarter way than this tideous:

 

 

1. split the overall aspect to x and y aspect

 

2. calculate the subsequent x and y slope

 

3. make an iterative sum over the rows, thus reaching the z values

 

4. cross-check / average with the same method over the columns

 

5. calibrate an z-offset at known point

 

6. make a grid
