The monitoring of Earth’s and planetary surface elevations at larger finer scales is rapidly progressing through the increasing availability resolution digital elevation models (DEMs). Surface observations are being used across an expanding range fields to study topographical attributes their changes over time, notably in glaciology, hydrology, volcanology, seismology, forestry geomorpho...

there is an increasing demand for reliable large-scale soil datato meet the requirements of models for planning of land-usesystems, characterization of soil pollution, and prediction ofland degradation. cation exchangecapacity (cec) is among the most important soil propertiesthat are required in soil databases. this paper applied a novel method for whole-soil profile predictions of cec (to 1 m)...

While digital panoramic photography taken along travelling routes is very popular, digital panoramic strip maps are virtually nonexistent. In this article, we explore the characteristics of panoramic strip maps and provide an interactive method for their digital creation, focusing on the challenge of straightening curved routes. The resulting software Terrain Bender implements a geometric defor...
