Characterising the ocean frontier : a review of marine geomorphometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Geomorphometry, the science that quantitatively describes terrains, has traditionally focused on the investigation of terrestrial landscapes. However, the dramatic increase in the availability of digital bathymetric data and the increasing ease by ...

On the uncertainty of stream networks derived from elevation data: the error propagation approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
DEM error propagation methodology is extended to the derivation of vector-based objects (stream networks) using geostatistical simulations. First, point sampled elevations are used to fit a variogram model.

Charting the Course for Future Developments in Marine Geomorphometry: An Introduction to the Special Issue

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
The use of spatial analytical techniques for describing and classifying seafloor terrain has become increasingly widespread in recent years, facilitated by a combination of improved mapping technologies and computer power and the common use of Geographic

Uncertainties Related to Scale and Sampling Window Size in Defining Macro Landforms

open access: yesCoğrafya Dergisi, 2023
This study focuses on the statistical significance of sampling window sizes, which are used to define macro landforms and the differences they cause in definitions.

Towards the optimal Pixel size of dem for automatic mapping of landslide areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Determining appropriate spatial resolution of digital elevation model (DEM) is a key step for effective landslide analysis based on remote sensing data. Several studies demonstrated that choosing the finest DEM resolution is not always the best solution.

Classification of seabed landforms on continental and island shelves

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The increasing availability and quality of high-resolution bathymetry data has led to a growing need for automated classification approaches to extract seabed features and better understand our ever-changing and complex seascapes.

Spectral filtering as a method of visualising and removing striped artefacts in digital elevation data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Spectral filtering was compared with traditional mean spatial filters to assess their ability to identify and remove striped artefacts in digital elevation data. The techniques were applied to two datasets: a 100 m contour derived digital elevation model

Improved Automatic Classification of Litho-Geomorphological Units by Using Raster Image Blending, Vipava Valley (SW Slovenia)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Automatic landslide classification based on digital elevation models has become a powerful complementary tool to field mapping. Many studies focus on the automatic classification of landslides’ geomorphological features, such as their steep main scarps ...

An evaluation of the General Bathymetric Chart of the Ocean in shoreline-crossing geomorphometric investigations of volcanic islands

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Digital elevation models (DEMs) are crucial in natural hazard assessments, as they often present the only comprehensive information. While satellites deliver remote sensing information of the land surface of up to 2m resolution, only 25% of the seafloor ...

GIS-based analysis of doline density on Miljevci karst plateau (Croatia)

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2022
The doline density and their spatial distribution analysis is one of the methods used for karst relief morphostructural analysis. We present the results of morphometric features, doline spatial distribution and their relationship on Miljevci karst ...
