Remote sensing and geomorphometric discrimination of slope processes
The 2 objectives of this study are : expand the scope of geomorphometric analysis to include variables based on hillslope profile analysis, and show that a combined spectral, textural and geomorphometric data set can separate geomorphic surfaces
Toward geomorphometric models for estimating landslide dynamics and forecasting landslide occurence in Japanese mountains
This paper examines, first, physical properties of landslide materials and dynamics of landslide processes using such geomorphometric attributes as length of the landslide mass, the relative altitude and the area of the mass. Special attention
, which is expressed by the dispersion of altitude distributed over a specific square sample space, is a geomorphometric attribute that can now be calculated easily from DEMs.
Slope and aspects calculations on gridded digital elevation models : examples from a geomorphometric toolbox for personal computers
This paper discusses some results from analyses of slope and aspects computed with a geomorphometric program, MICRODEM. The results discussed here primarily deal with 2 digital elevation models (DEMs) produced by the U.S. Geological Survey, although
Geomorphometric measures for digital elevation models
Geomorphometric measures developed for contour maps are redefined here specifically for digital elevation models (DEMs). The measures are of 3 types depending on the feature localized : point, window, or drainage basin - the principal focus
