The status of the world's public-domain digital topography of the land and ice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
There has been no reasonably comprehensive survey of what digital, elevation models of the Earth's land surface exist in the public‐domain. We have performed a survey of these data, and we report on the coverage and cost of the data we have established ...

Urban Geomorphological Heritage. An Overview

open access: yesQuaestiones Geographicae, 2017
Urbanization is a global phenomenon and currently more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas. Studies on geomorphological heritage and the development of specific methods of investigation (assessment, inventories, cartography) are ...

Considerations on geomorphological maps for territorial planning in the Modena Apennines (Northern Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This contribution shows, through some examples, that the current instability processes sometimes do not completely correspond (concerning presence, location, state of activity and/or extent) with those mapped by PTCP Hydrogeological Hazard Maps, which is

Geomorphological control on boulder transport and coastal erosion before, during and after an extreme extra-tropical cyclone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Extreme wave events in coastal zones are principal drivers of geomorphic change. Evidence of boulder entrainment and erosional impact during storms is increasing.

Landslide risk management through spatial analysis and stochastic prediction for territorial resilience evaluation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Natural materials, such as soils, are influenced by many factors acting during their formative and evolutionary process: atmospheric agents, erosion and transport phenomena, sedimentation conditions that give soil properties a non-reducible randomness by

The assimilation of historic photography and cartography into longterm coastal geomorphological analysis

open access: yesProcedia Environmental Sciences, 2010
AbstractLong-term coastal changes have traditionally been analyzed using cartographic sources supplemented by anecdotal descriptions of the coastal configuration where available. These studies have been susceptible to many problems as the cartographic sources differ in terms of the surveying techniques, the accuracy, and the representation of features ...
