In 2005, to the order of the Surveying and Mapping Authority of the Republic of Slovenia, the Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts elaborated an integral system for data maintenance: the Digital Elevation Model with new, qualitative terrain data. The system is relatively simple and transparent. With integration of the existing data and on the basis of innovative methodology, for the territory of Slovenia and its surroundings a new digital elevation model was produced with a resolution of 12.5 m. Due to pooling of more than 25 data sets the model is a sort of collage, which is, from the metrical and geomorphological points of view, of better quality than the best source data available. A further challenge is to put the elaborated methodology and procedures of digital elevation model production into practice.
