Towards an Ontology of Landforms
The paper begins with the question “Do mountains exist?” It shows that providing an answer to this question is surprisingly difficult, and that the answer which one gives depends on the context in which the question is posed. Mountains clearly exist as real correlates of everyday human thought and action, and they form the archetype for geographic objects. Yet individual mountains lack many of ...
متن کاملModelling cockpit karst landforms
The purpose of this article is to present a model of the formation processes of cockpit karst landscapes. The CHILD software was used to simulate landscape evolution including dissolution processes of carbonate rocks. After examining briefly how the CHILD model operates, two applications of this model involving dissolution of carbonate rocks are presented. The simulated landscapes are compared ...
متن کاملIdentifying Landforms and Soils by Aerial Photographs
In the process of analyzing aerial photographs to obtain information on the engineering characteristics of soils, the first and perhaps the most important step is to identify the landform. The landform may consist of hills, valleys, plains, terraces, beaches, dunes, and other topo graphic features largely created by the forces of erosion. The im portance of the landform lies in its relation t...

متن کاملMethods for real-time visualization and interaction with landforms
This thesis presents methods to enrich data modeling and analysis in the geoscience domain with a particular focus on geomorphological applications. First, a short overview of the relevant characteristics of the used remote sensing data and basics of its processing and visualization are provided. Then, two new methods for the visualization of vector-based maps on digital elevation models (DEMs)...
