Characterizing Major Terrain Features Identifying Extended High Ridges …could include aspect and distance to road in refining best ridges for Wind Power development— how? Identifying Valley Bottom Lands …could include vegetation type in the extended riparian zone— how? Identifying Dam Reservoir Extent …could calculate reservoir volume capacity at various surface water heights— how?
Just for fun …you’re having fun, right? Let’s compare the effect of changing a bit of model logic… The method of determining ridge elevation from— Minimum Elevation for each candidate ridge versus Average Elevation for each candidate ridge …in determining high ridges
