Shoebox Landform Data

Land Form Data (click on picture for a bigger view)


As a result of the data, the land form displayed above required a satellite view as well as false colors. The satellite signals show what the land form would look like at a 2- dimensional view. In this case, the skewers acted as the satellite. The false colors then give us the 3-dimensional effect. The different colors in the graph demonstrates the protrusion and elevation of the land forms based on a x-y-z graph. For instance, the graph on the right shows the elevation of the land forms within the shoe box. In this shoe box, we were able to identify a few mountains on the left and some hills in the middle and on the right.
