Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

The Murrumbidgee catchment is characterised by plains in the west with elevations around 50m, to steep mountainous regions towards the east with elevations in excess of 2,100m in the Snowy Mountains. The western plains show a few geological outcroppings with elevations up to 250m above sea level, while the highest point of the catchment is in the south east, with an elevation of about 2,220m. This is quite close to Mount Kosciuszko, the highest mountain in Australia. DEM data have been sourced by Geoscience Australia.
