Engineering-geomorphological mapping on the basis of space images using statistical probability analysis

Abstract

The fault tectonics is stated to be leading factor of spatial localisation of exogenous processes; the concept may be used as a theoretical basis of compilation of prognostic engineering geomorphological maps. Methods of engineering-geomorphological mapping are discussed using statistical probability processing of space photoes interpretation data on fault tectonics and exogenous processes; Examples are given of special maps for land reclamation and transport works.
