Transformation of detailed cartographic or aerial photographic information into superficial flow descriptions (as exemplified by an idealized surface water flow) is undertaken using a new method. This offers a new approach to vegetation-landscape relationships, mainly in grassland vegetation, as well as new scopes with regards processes related to geochemistry and soils distribution, considering slopes and fluvial systems as a single unit. lt is limited, in its present form, to small catchment areas as it is not yet automated.
