Regolith terrain mapping for mineral exploration in Western Australia in Applied geomorphological mapping : methodology by example.
An experimental form of mapping has been tried, initially at 1 :5 000 000 scale covering the whole of Australia and then at 1 : 1 000 000 scale over the Kalgoorlie area of SE Western Australia. With appropriate interpretation the Kalgoorlie Regolith
Terrain Map provides a geomorphological basis for mineral exploration.

Ein anwendungsbereites Konzept der landschaftsgeographischen Grundlagenkarten. (An available conception for landscape geographic basic maps)
On the base of normal landscape maps by the help of reprotechnical change (scale, printing methods), the author presents a conception for landscape basic maps which can serve as maps for agrarian diagnose. Cartographic transformation allows
a creation of different kinds of applied maps for using in practice.
