Publication at Faculty of Science |
2013

Abstract

Methods for digital cliff drawing, used in production of large-scale topographic maps by Land Survey Office of the Czech Republic, are discussed. This is done in the context of Czech natural conditions and histo-ry of mapping, which influenced contemporary digital processing to a great extent.

A detailed description of digital rock portrayal is given. Experi-ments, regarding a possible future development of digital cliff drawing in sandstone landscapes, based on the use of airborne laser scanning data, are also introduced.
