Chinese progress in geomorphometry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chinese Geography, 2017
Geomorphometry, the science of digital terrain analysis (DTA), is an important focus of research in both geomorphology and geographical information science (GIS). Given that 70% of China is mountainous, geomorphological research is popular among Chinese scholars, and the development of GIS over the last 30 years has led to significant advances in ...

Surface Roughness in Geomorphometry: From Basic Metrics Toward a Coherent Framework

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Surface roughness (SR), most often computed from a digital elevation model (DEM), is a fundamental concept in geomorphometry, with significant applications across the earth sciences and ecology. However, its analysis remains fragmented, lacking a unified

Editorial: Frontiers in marine geomorphometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Marine geomorphometry is the science of quantitative terrain characterization applied to the seabed. Like many geospatial applications, techniques used for marine geomorphometry have been sourced from the terrestrial sciences. Through progress in the fields of seabed mapping, marine geomorphology, benthic habitat mapping, and marine ecology, scientists

Geomorphometry -diversity in quantitative surface analysis

open access: yesProgress in Physical Geography, 2000
A widening variety of applications is diversifying geomorphometry ( digital terrain modelling), the quantitative study of topography. An amalgam of earth science, mathematics, engineering and computer science, the discipline has been revolutionized by the computer manipulation of gridded terrain heights, or digital elevation models (DEMs).
