Modeling alpine geomorphology using laser altimetry data

Geomorphologic Mapping of Tete Municipality, Mozambique

Geomorphological mapping consists of a set of techniques used to map landforms and the processes acting on the Earth's surface. It is a combination of techniques used in the representation of landforms and a useful tool to support information for integrated environmental analyses, territorial management, and geo-enviro...

Land cover mapping from orthorectified Neo-Pleiades imagery via Object-Based methods

Abstract. Posidonia oceanica is one of the most important seagrass species in the Mediterranean Sea, providing essential ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, coastal protection and acting as a habitat and nursery ground for numerous marine species. These meadows have experienced significant decline in recen...

Geomorphological monitoring of erosion on restored slopes through the integration of drones, GIS, and LiDAR

Abstract. Mining is a strategic driver of economic development, yet it generates substantial impacts on landscape structure, soil integrity, and water systems. During ecological restoration, slope erosion remains a critical challenge for ensuring long-term geomorphological stability and ecosystem recovery. This study e...

Kinematic Mapping and Geomorphological Analysis of Rock Glaciers in the Pirin Mountains (Bulgaria)

Rock glaciers are critical indicators of periglacial environments and the spatial distribution of mountain permafrost. Given their complex deformation patterns and temporal variability, which may indicate progressive destabilization, a quantitative evaluation of their kinematic activity is critical from both climatolog...

Mapping of multi-scale relief patterns and territorial planning: Applications at the Geological Survey of Brazil

Geomorphological studies conducted by the Geological Survey of Brazil (SGB-CPRM) have evolved since the 1970s, with significant methodological advances over the past two decades in institutional projects. In this context, multiscale mapping of landform patterns has become established as a fundamental approach to terrai...
