Improvement of legend and content of geomorphological map
Abstract
The possibility of land surface elements classification by the morphological principle only is grounded. The morphological map (the map of land surface elements) is considered as basic model of locality. Instead of complicated set of insignia, structural and vector lines are used in the legend of the map. These lines express, correspondingly, discrete and continual aspects of land surface. In the result the legend became much simpler and the map based on it - more readable, at that informative value of the latter may be augmented.
