geomorphologic database - Opis:
- The digital relief intensity map of Pomerania based on the digital geomorphology model is a useful tool for the selection of specific work areas. Thanks to the relief intensity coefficient, the image pattern recognition of forms of any sizes of the basic area was possible and independent from the absolute height. This allows comparing the forms, and especially studying their spatial relationships with other morphological units within the marginal zone. The map database is a system both complex, consisting of numerous components adopted from published sources (mainly maps) such as geology, geomorphology or topography, but also open. This means the possibility of its expansion, and the carried out analyses using geostatistical methods are sources of quantitatively new sets of data. As an example may stand the method for determining the area of outwash plain surfaces in Pomerania influenced by extreme glacial water discharges in the late Pleistocene, and the attempt to estimate the scale of this phenomenon. This map, by providing the opportunity to observe the area of morphometric features in both regional and local scales, whether in Pomerania or in contemporary glaciated areas, constitutes an important element in understanding the regularities governing such processes in the past.
