Modellierung historischer Oberflächen und prähistorischer Landschaften auf Grundlage hochauflösender Geländemodelle

Terrain surfaces conserve human activities in terms of textures and structures. The objective of geomorphological filters is to distinguish between anthropogenically undisturbed and disturbed surfaces. Filters applied over high-resolution DTM show a clear anthropogenic character of contour lines and channels. Based on methodology of geomorphometry and geo-statistics a series of analyses functions is developed to provide a relief which can be defined as historical by means of geomorphological, archaeological and geomorphometrical knowledge and a relief which can be defined as prehistoric.
