Terrain is considered one of the most essential natural geographic features and is a key
factor in physical processes. Geomorphometry and terrain analyses have provided a wealth …

This paper reviews LiDAR ground filtering algorithms used in the process of creating Digital
Elevation Models. We discuss critical issues for the development and application of LiDAR …

Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology, Second Edition, synthesizes the
knowledge on methods and applications of digital terrain analysis and geomorphometry in …

Multibeam surveys can provide detailed bathymetry data for the continental slope from
which quantitative descriptors of the seabed terrain (eg, slope) may be obtained. We …

Airborne LiDAR is one of the most effective and reliable means of terrain data collection.
Using LiDAR data for digital elevation model (DEM) generation is becoming a standard …

Current use of land surface curvatures (LSCs) is in a confused state as a large gap has
opened up between applications and theoretical work. LSCs exercise important control on …

Digital elevation models (DEMs) contain some of the most important data for providing
terrain information and supporting environmental analyses. However, the applications of …

Digital elevation models (DEMs) represent the topography that drives surface flow and are
arguably one of the more important data sources for deriving variables used by numerous …

The use of topographic airborne LiDAR data has become an essential part of archaeological
prospection, and the need for an archaeology-specific data processing workflow is well …

Land-surface parameters derived from digital land surface models (DLSMs)(for example,
slope, surface curvature, topographic position, topographic roughness, aspect, heat load …
