Hierarchical geomorphological mapping in mountainous areas
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a method of digital geomorphological mapping mountainous areas with legend consisting three-tiered nested hierarchy using two case study from Vorarlberg, Austria. Users can easily visualize maps in geographical information system (GIS) at the finest level 33 morphogenetic domains. Reclassification classes an automated GIS-workflow generates medium and high levels hierarchy, each tier is accompanied by suggested scale ranges for visualization. A variety high-resolution input data (LiDAR-derived data, geological raster maps) supports method, which also strongly benefits field knowledge. The facilitates analysis, interpretation, visualization application large range scales corresponding densities within one database. structure allows inclusion additional adaptation other environments.

Quantifying Energy Demand in Mountainous Areas
Despite their rich energy renewable potential, mountainous areas suffer from energy poverty. A viable solution seems to be the radical turn towards renewable resources. Any tailor-cut energy planning for mountainous areas presupposes the adequate estimation of the energy demand of buildings, which in this case is hindered by the lack of long-term meteorological data, especially in remote, high ...
متن کاملPrecipitation Resource Potential in Mountainous Areas in Hebei Province Analysis
The climatic conditions of Hebei Province cause this area shortage of water resources, man-made factors lead it more serious. In March 2007 in Hebei , 37 mountain counties got samples of soil and corn, conducted indoor tests, through analyzing Hebei rainfall and soil moisture and corn yield in mountains, using potential resource calculated model to precipitation, they analyzed and evaluated pre...
متن کاملEstimation of Solar Radiation on Building Roofs in Mountainous Areas
The aim of this study is estimating solar radiation on building roofs in complex mountain landscape areas. A multi-scale solar radiation estimation methodology is proposed that combines 3D data ranging from regional scale to the architectural one. Both the terrain and the nearby building shadowing effects are considered. The approach is modular and several alternative roof models, obtained by s...
متن کاملEfficient occlusion-free visualization for navigation in mountainous areas
In three-dimensional (3D) navigation, if mountainous terrain is displayed based on ordinary perspective projection, viewers often find that the features of interest are occluded, which prevents an overview of the features. This paper presents an approach for the automatic generation of consecutive nonperspective views of mountainous terrain. The proposed method can generate views without occlus...
