Developments in photogrammetry; the geomorphological potential

This article will illustrate the advantages of the photograph as a means of providing and storing information on three dimensional landform, showing how developments within photogrammetry can increasingly allow the use of the photograph as a means
of providing morphological information in a form directly suited to the construction of digitized terrain models.

Relict shorelines and ice flow patterns of the northern Puget Lowland from lidar data and digital terrain modelling

The aim of this paper is to show how digital terrain modelling using high-resolution lidar (Light Detection And Ranging) data of Whidbey and Camano islands, combined with an understanding of process-form relations can be used to provide information
on the uplift pattern in the northern Puget Lowland. The AA. provide height information from lidar data of sea level indicators along a transect oriented N-S, roughly parallel to the direction of ice movement. In addition, they present geomorphic information
that relates to the ice flow directions of these islands to provide information of the melting history of ice in this area.

GRID activities in Denmark

Data base ; Denmark ; Education ; Environment ; Environmental degradation ; Geographical information system ; Pollution ; Resource management ; Risk ; Teaching
In Denmark a regional centre has been added to the Global Resource Information Database (GRID), run by the United Nations Environment Program. The centre aims at facilitating the difficult task for primary, secondary and general education
of catching up with and provide students with appropriate background knowledge, skills and overview prerequisites for the understanding of the nature and scale of the major environmental problems and serious risks reported and reviewed in the news media
. The centre will provide the basic GRID core functions, such as assembling, processing and supply of geo-referenced environmental data.

The greenhouse effect, sea-level rise and coastal geomorphology

geomorphologists can provide valuable information on the likely reaction of coastlines to sea-level change, as well as advising on suitable protection strategies.
Future sea-level rise provides a major challenge to coastal geomorphologists working in many different areas. Regional responses to a variable projected rate of sea-level rise will undoubtedly be complex and have major policy implications. Coastal

An integrated landscape research concerns not only an interdisciplinary cooperation in study of man-land interaction, but first of all, the connection of regional management with information systems for landscape. Geography provides, using
the cartographical presentation and computer processing a purposive information system for management organisation with respect to social needs and land protection. (MS).
