The properties of streamlined glacial landforms and palaeo-flow indicators in the valleys of Viðidalur, Vatnsdalur and Svínadalur in northern Iceland were quantified using spatial analyses. Drumlins and mega-scale glacial lineations (MSGL) were visually identified using satellite imagery from Google...
