An Automated Processing Algorithm for Flat Areas Resulting from DEM Filling and Interpolation

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017
Correction of digital elevation models (DEMs) for flat areas is a critical process for hydrological analyses and modeling, such as the determination of flow directions and accumulations, and the delineation of drainage networks and sub-basins.

TERRAIN TECTONICS OF THE CENTRAL ASIAN FOLDED BELT

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
The terrain analysis concept envisages primarily a possibility of approximation of fragments / terrains of various geodynamic settings which belong to different plates. The terrain analysis can supplement the theory of plate tectonics in solving problems

Quantitative and Qualitative Terrain Analysis Based on Digital Terrain Model

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021
Abstract Within the Digital Terrain Models (DTM) processing and consequently qualitative and quantitative analysis, it is possible to gain a credible imagination of real terrain shape. In order to obtain an appropriate DTM, it is necessary to decrease the influence of the gross errors that have negative effects on the final DTM.

Geomorphologic Landviews Classification, Based on Topographical Parameters in GIS (Case Study: Northwest of Shiraz) [PDF]

open access: yesجغرافیا و توسعه, 2009
Topographic parameters extracted from digital elevation model (DEM), provide valuable information about characteristics of the earth surface. These parameters are used in quantitative geomorphology with regard to terrain analysis.

Analysis of flat terrain for the atlas robot [PDF]

open access: yes2013 3rd Joint Conference of AI & Robotics and 5th RoboCup Iran Open International Symposium, 2013
This paper gives a description of an approach to analyze the sensor information of the surroundings to select places where the foot of a humanoid can be placed. This will allow apply such robot in a rescue scenario, as foreseen in the DARPA Robotics Challenge, where a robot is forced to traverse difficult terrain.
