📣 Co-ordinate merge with release linz/topo-imagery#1494
Motivation
Use the capture-area.geojson file of the upstream data source, which will be, or has been (change in progress) created from the national DEM/DSM capture-dates.geojson files.
Modifications
Do not create footprints when creating hillshades.
Use the
supplied_capture_areaparameter to provide a capture area from the upstream data source.The exception to this are the merged DEM hillshades, which backfill from the 8m DEM and do not use the hillshade command. These will generate footprints as usual.
Note that if the 8m DEM needs to be recreated,
create_capture_areawill need to be set totrueVerification
Test workflows run.
