Mapping of Greenland landscape using aerial photography and orthophotography (Technical Note)
Aerial photography is an important tool for mapping on local scale. In the paper, description of aerial photos taken over several urban and natural landscape sites in West Greenland is given as well as their processing. Using a high-resolution software, aerial photos were processed and digital terra...

Using a high-resolution software, aerial photos were processed and digital terrain models (DTMs) of the sites produced. Technique of contour lines was used to check the created DTM for particular site. Finally, orthophotos of all sites were produced.
