Abstract/Description or Keywords | A general overview of several photographic techniques available for use in field investigations of small (1–10 m2) to large (>100 km2) geomorphic features is given. These techniques range from inexpensive manual methods (e.g., unipod or balloon photography) to comparatively expensive remote sensing methods such as standard aerial photography and satellite imagery. The photographs can be used for a wide variety of purposes, depending on the objectives of the project and the level of accuracy required. Some examples of their application in geomorphology are provided. |
