Data-mining Based Detection of Glaciers: Quantifying the Extent of Alpine Valley Glaciation
The extent of glaciation in alpine valleys often gives clues to past climates, plate movement, mountain landforms, bedrock geology and more. However, without field investigation, the degree to which a valley was affected by a glacier has been difficult to assess. We developed a model that uses quant...
