商品描述
This book offers a comprehensive examination of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and their applications in environmental analysis, combining foundational concepts with practical methodologies. It introduces key principles of geoprocessing and GIS, provides an in-depth overview of global DEMs and their limitations, and systematically explores techniques for terrain characterization, flow direction and drainage network extraction, basin delineation, flow path analysis, and inundation mapping for applications such as reservoir planning. Three dedicated chapters on topographic indices bridge theory and practice in hydrology, ecology, and wind exposure studies. The final chapter addresses the critical role of error and uncertainty in DEM processing, emphasizing quality assessment in hydrological modeling. Richly illustrated and grounded in current research, this resource equips students and professionals to effectively integrate DEMs into environmental studies.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書全面探討數位高程模型(Digital Elevation Models, DEMs)及其在環境分析中的應用,結合基礎概念與實用方法論。書中介紹了地理處理(geoprocessing)和地理資訊系統(GIS)的關鍵原則,深入概述全球的 DEMs 及其限制,並系統性地探討地形特徵化、流向與排水網路提取、流域劃分、流徑分析及淹水地圖製作等技術,這些技術可應用於水庫規劃等領域。三個專門章節關於地形指數(topographic indices)將理論與水文學、生態學及風暴暴露研究的實踐相結合。最後一章探討了誤差與不確定性在 DEM 處理中的關鍵角色,強調在水文模型中的質量評估。本書插圖豐富,基於當前研究,幫助學生和專業人士有效地將 DEMs 整合到環境研究中。
