Objects Generalization Using DEM
Track: Cartography and Map Production
Author(s): Daniel Elena

DEM can be used to generalize the objects that are controlled by topography features. First of all there are the streams and lakes. After the Hydrologic Analyst was applied the calculated streams are the bases to define the location of the streams data which are collected from more detailed maps than the map that we make now. We used a number of spatial operations to select detailed streams data and then combine them. Then we constructed the generalized basemap to present fuel and energy data for the Timan-Pechora oil and gas-producing province in Russia.
