A semi-automated approach for GIS based generation of topographic attributes for landform classification

A semi-automated approach for GIS based generation of topographic attributes for landform classification

This paper presents LANDFORM, a customized GIS application for semi-automated classification of landform elements, based on landscape parameters. Using custom commands, topographic attributes like curvature or elevation percentile were derived from a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and used as thresho...
