Abstract

Terrain classification based on slope units (SU). Colors match the figures below and correspond to ten classes (clusters), obtained by k-means clustering with slope unit aggregation level. Clustering was applied using mean and standard deviation of morphometric variables calculated within each slope unit polygon: elevation is the dominant contribution. The inset shows the location of the study area (blue polygon), mostly in Nepal. Maps in EPSG:4326. © Journal of Maps, 2022
