Abstract

This paper presents a digital terrain model of the Absheron Peninsula, Azerbaijan, produced to optimize the use of its natural resources. This dynamically developing region requires a geographically distributed information system accumulating expert knowledge and geospatial information of various levels. The main idea is to integrate diverse data in a single information space: vector layers of varying scale and thematic content, satellite data, cartographic materials, and ground survey data. To ensure quick access to the information, all data are classified by scale and theme and presented in a single cartographic projection in the Geodatabase. The creation of a single information space reduces the amount of computation and data processing time required to produce new thematic materials based on the incoming satellite information. Furthermore, it significantly facilitates the processing and interpretation of remote sensing data. Data management tools embedded in geographic information systems ensure the interconnection of data.
