River network identification using Remote Sensing and GIS

On the quality of the drainage network cartographic representation

“…From the 1990s the process of mapping drainage networks has included techniques of mathematical morphology and algorithms for the mapping and simulation of the surface flows (Reddy et al, 2018;Shilpi, 2014;Zhang et al, 2017). These algorithms have been adopted for different uses, from automatically deriving drainage and catchment boundaries to mapping stream networks.…”
