DT0 to HPG Conversion
What are DT0 files?
DT0 is the file extension for Level 0 of Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED), a gridded elevation product defined by the U.S. National Imagery and Mapping Agency, now the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), in the MIL-PRF-89020 specification. A file of this type covers one degree of latitude by one degree of longitude and holds elevation values at a post spacing of 30 arc-seconds, which corresponds to roughly one kilometer on the ground. Higher levels of the same series use the .dt1 and .dt2 extensions, with spacings of 3 and 1 arc-seconds. Each file starts with header records that describe the cell origin, the data set identification, and the accuracy of the data, followed by the elevation grid. DTED is widely used in military, aviation, and civil mapping applications, and Level 0 data is publicly available.
What are HPG files?
HPG is a vector image format created in a standard programming language called HPGL (Hewlett-Packard graphics language). Other extensions created in this language include PLT, HP2 and PL2. All are called "plotter files" and are created by drawing programs such as AutoCAD to be printed using a device specialized in vector graphics. An HPG file uses a line series of two-letter codes to render an image and can also include parameters.
