Item Cloud-capped towers: Capturing terrain characteristics using topographic functionals(Wydział Nauk Geograficznych i Geologicznych Uniwersytetu im. Adama Mickiewicza, 2015) Earl, Edward; Metzler, DavidWe introduce three related mathematical measures of terrain based on a particularly elegant combination of relief and steepness, which we term omnidirectional relief and steepness (ORS).
