Terrain Generalization : Recommendations

• 3 breaks– 24K – 250K– 250K – 750K– 750K – 1M

• Processing Steps– 10m DEM, smoothed once (LGDEM)– 10m DEM, smoothed 10 times (MDDEM)– 30m DEM aggregated, smoothed 10 times (SMDEM)

Contours : Analyzing contours

• Looked at each subbasin to determine:– Contour density– Contour complexity
