swissSURFACE3D Raster monodirectional hillshade

The hillshade is derived from the digital elevation model swissSURFACE3D Raster. It illustrates the surface relief of Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein. A hillshade is derived from the elevation model by calculating the exposure of the surface to sunlight at a certain or several angles. The monodirectional swissSURFACE3D Raster hillshade is generated using a northwestern sun position as light source.
