20.500.12556/DiRROS-17389 Not another hillshade: alternatives which improve visualizations of bathymetric data Increasing awareness of the importance of effective communication of scientific results and concepts, and the need for more accurate mapping and increased feature visibility led to the development of novel approaches to visualization of high-resolution elevation data. While new approaches have routinely been adopted for land elevation data, this does not seem to be the case for the offshore and submerged terrestrial realms. We test the suitability of algorithms provided by the freely-available and user-friendly Relief Visualization Toolbox (RVT) software package for visualizing bathymetric data. We examine the algorithms optimal for visualizing the general bathymetry of a study area, as well as for highlighting specific morphological shapes that are common on the sea-, lake- and riverbed. We show that these algorithms surpass the more conventional analytical hillshading in providing visualizations of bathymetric data richer in details, and foremost, providing a better overview of the morphological features of the studied areas. We demonstrate that the algorithms are efficient regardless of the source data type, depth range, resolution, geographic, and geological setting. The summary of our results and observations can serve as a reference for future users of RVT for displaying bathymetric data. bathymetry RVT visualization hillshade geomorphology marine geology multibeam true false true Frontiers Media Angleški jezik Ni določen Neznano 2023-11-30 03:36:16 2023-12-01 09:54:14 2023-12-02 03:38:13 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 15 str. vol. 10 2023 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno apc 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2023-11-27 551.1/.4 2296-7745 10.3389/fmars.2023.1266364 174108675 fmars-10-1266364_(3).pdf fmars-10-1266364_(3).pdf 1 C78807252643DF7A910AC38E8459DA65 3cf717b4a7e1a8f09e1572ad93df2c943ab3d194cd9f25bf6358e6943825ac80 c1b2c4d1-901f-11ee-9ccb-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=23647 Geološki zavod Slovenije 0 0 0
