    About this ebook

    Geomorphological Mapping: a professional handbook of techniques and applications is a new book targeted at academics and practitioners who use, or wish to utilise, geomorphological mapping within their work. Synthesising for the first time an historical perspective to geomorphological mapping, field based and digital tools and techniques for mapping and an extensive array of case studies from academics and professionals active in the area. Those active in geomorphology, engineering geology, reinsurance, Environmental Impact Assessors, and allied areas, will find the text of immense value.
    • Growth of interest in geomorphological mapping and currently no texts comprehensively cover this topic
    • Extensive case studies that will appeal to professionals, academics and students (with extensive use of diagrams, potentially colour plates)
    • Brings together material on digital mapping (GIS and remote sensing), cartography and data sources with a focus on modern technologies (including GIS, remote sensing and digital terrain analysis)
    • Provides readers with summaries of current advances in methodological/technical aspects
    • Accompanied by electronic resources for digital mapping
