"The zero coordinate point of the Swiss National Survey LV95"... in Madeira.

A friend having some holidays in Madeira found this: a mark for the 0,0 of the Swiss CRS.
(Well, the zero is on the sea, but not that far ;)

@perry @spatialists @OpendataCH Nein, die Daten stammen vom Bundesamt für Landestopographie #Swisstopo (digitales Höhenmodell DHM 25/200 @ https://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/de/hoehenmodell-dhm25-200m).
DHM25 / 200m

Das digitale Höhenmodell DHM25 mit einer Maschenweite von 200 m ist ein Datensatz, welcher die dreidimensionale Form der Erdoberfläche ohne Bewuchs und Bebauung beschreibt. Er wurde im Wesentlichen aus der Höheninformation der Landeskarte 1:25'000 (LK25) abgeleitet.
