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 …

Landscape analysis and ecosystem service assessment have drawn increasing concern
from research and application at the landscape scale. Thanks to the continuously emerging …

The monitoring of Earth's and planetary surface elevations at larger and finer scales is
rapidly progressing through the increasing availability and resolution of digital elevation …

We first provide a critical review of statistical procedures employed in the literature for testing
uncertainty in digital terrain analysis, then focus on several aspects of spatial autocorrelation …

The analysis of longitudinal river profiles is an important tool for studying landscape
evolution. However, characterizing river profiles based on digital elevation models (DEMs) …

Assessment of a DEM's quality is usually undertaken by deriving a measure of DEM
accuracy–how close the DEM's elevation values are to the true elevation. Measures such as …

We present a bioclimatological diagnosis of mainland Portugal, namely the thermotype and
ombrotype maps following Rivas-Martínez's worldwide bioclimatic classification system. In …

Q-LavHA is a freeware plugin which simulates lava flow inundation probability from one or
regularly distributed eruptive vents on a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). It combines existing …

Quantitative surface analysis through quadratic modelling of Digital Elevation Models
(DEMs) is a promising tool for automatically describing the physical environment in …

Digital elevation model (DEM) as an essential input to flood risk analyzers is subject to a
certain level of uncertainty, which increases as the resolution becomes coarser. To quantify …
