Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods, devices, and systems for blending geographic data when combining geographic data sources. The methods, devices, and systems identify a blend region for transitioning between a first dataset and a second dataset. The methods, devices, and systems extrapolate geographic data from the second dataset to blend with the geographic data from the first dataset to create blended elevation data in the blend region. The methods, devices, and systems may generate an image for a geographic region with the first set of geographic data, the second set of geographic data, and the blended elevation data.
