Zastosowanie GiS do oceny morfodynamiki obszaru użytkowanego rolniczo

Application of GiS for morphodynamics assessment of farmland area

Summary: Based on digital maps from the Carpathian Foothills (between the Raba and Uszwica rivers) GIS analysis was used to assess morphodynamic factors of relief development. A set of maps showing natural and anthropogenic conditions for relief development and transformation was created based on analysis of digital elevation model (DEM) maps of the main relief features, sub-catchments, land use patterns, and soil cultivation methods. In the first part of the paper the assumptions on the role of particular geographical featu-res for relief development are presented. In the second part, the procedure for developing the relief assessment map is presented. Even though the area has been used for agricultural purposes since the Neolithic period, the intensity of morphodynamic processes is still low. Agricultural practices are adapted to relief and spatial distribution of landforms.
