Geomorphological quantitative analysis of Sperchios River Basin area (Central Greece) utilizing geographical information systems.
Abstract
In the present study the analysis of the morphometric quantitative parameters of Sperchios river basin, and specifically of the 8 main sub-basins of the northern and southern part, have been made. The integrated use of a Geographic Information System (GIS) allows a thorough spatial analysis of the data derived from digital terrain spatial models that reveal the geomorphological characteristics of an area. The thorough analysis of the results shows the significant difference of the morphological characteristics of the northern and southern part of the catchment area, due to the impact of the neotectonic activity of the area, which creates this asymmetrical topography.
