Mr. Prakash. I am a Civil Btech student. I am currently not able to convert the Geotiff files downloaded from CartoDEM to contours or a surface. Could you kindly share with me how were you able to do the task?
I currently have access to AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 and have the conventional method on it

Please follow the steps

1. Install Quantum GIS 1.7.4

2. Go to plug-in - raster based analysis - choose slope or aspect or ruggeddness index or total curvature

3. select input layer as DEM downlaoded from Bhuvan and keep output layer name and format and run - you will get the result

4. If you want contour - go to plug in - manage plugin - search for gdaltools and enable

5. Go to raster from menu - extraction - contour - define your output file name, interval and run - you will get contours.

6. all results are attached ( it is sample only, you may need to finetune the values to get desired results).

7. If you have any queries, please feel free to discuss.
