The Official Topographical Cartographic Information System (ATKIS) carries out the current topography of the entire country and presents it according to uniform principles throughout Germany, for example in topographic maps. The AKTIS products form the geotopographic database describing the form (digital terrain models) and the use (Digital Orthophotos, Digital Landscape Models, Digital Topographic Maps) of the Earth’s surface. They are available for use in machine-readable form. Digital orthophotos and topographic maps are also available analogously. ATKIS thus forms the public-law data base for digital processing technologies and the geotopographic basis for connecting and linking to geothetical technical data.
