DTMA Training
DTMA Training equips engineers with practical techniques to transform elevation data into efficient road designs. Learn to prepare DTMs, analyse terrain features, optimise corridor alignments, estimate earthwork volumes, and deliver concise reports that justify decisions for safer, more cost-effective projects. Ideal for preliminary road planning and design phases.

What will I learn?
This course provides hands-on skills for sourcing, preparing, and analysing elevation data to support effective corridor planning. Participants will learn to choose appropriate DTMs, process and clean LiDAR data, perform slope, aspect, hydrologic, and landform analyses, develop conceptual alignments, extract profiles and cross-sections, calculate earthworks, specify survey requirements, and produce clear, justified reports for early-stage road projects.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Source DTM data: efficiently locate, evaluate, and select trustworthy elevation datasets.
- Process terrain: clean, grid, and verify DTMs for rapid engineering assessments.
- Optimise corridor alignment: leverage DTM analysis to identify low-cost, low-risk road routes.
