Space photoes indication analysis in engineering geomorphology

Abstract

Space photos application to the engineering geomorphology enlarges considerably its sphere and provides with essentially new information on geomorphic conditions in regions of planned construction. A new concept of indication analysis of space photoes is developed; it is based on the fact that indicative properties of photoimages of relief vary with changes of the optical generalisation level of the space photoes. Practical applicability of the analysis is defined with view to engineering geomorphology problems arising from linear constructions survey.
