Farmland terrace slope detection from Pleiades digital elevation models
Résumé
Mediterranean farmers have adopted from Roman timesoil conservation practices. By decreasing slope intensities and lengths, terraces are one these soil conservation practices. The spatial pattern of terrace slopes is hetero-
geneous and depends on natural terrain slope. In erosion and hydrological studies, maps of terraces slopes may be
needed [1]:
How to map these landscape elements from remote sensing ?
Is a Pleiades derivated DEM suitable and accurateenough to map these landscape elements ?
