Elevation Models for Reproducible Evaluation of Terrain Representation - Inventory of Renderings

<p>This is an&nbsp;inventory of 155 renderings from 78 publications on terrain visualization techniques. The renderings guided the selection of landform types in the elevation models that are proposed in the following article:</p> <p><em>Kennelly, P. J., Patterson, T., Jenny, B., Huffman, D. P., Marston, B. E., Bell, S. and Tait, A. M. (2021).&nbsp;Elevation models for reproducible evaluation of terrain representation.&nbsp;Cartography and Geographic Information Science, 48:1, 63&ndash;77.&nbsp;DOI:&nbsp;<a href="http://doi.org/10.1080/15230406.2020.1830856">10.1080/15230406.2020.1830856</a></em></p> <p>Visualization techniques include&nbsp;colored aspect, contour lines, hypsometric tints, plan oblique relief, relief shading, rock and scree representation, and spot heights. The inventory contains information about&nbsp;display scale of the sample renderings, landform types,&nbsp;cell size, and&nbsp;geographic location of the digital elevation models.&nbsp;Also inventoried are how authors evaluated their renderings, how scale was indicated on the renderings, and whether the cell size and source of elevation data was included.</p> <p>The inventory is formatted as a single table&nbsp;in CSV UTF-8 and MS&nbsp;Excel .xlsx&nbsp;formats. Papers are grouped by visualization type; attributes of each rendering are stored on a single row.</p>
