REMOTE SENSING IN THE STUDY OF EXOGENOUS RELIEF FORMATION ALONG THE BAYKAL-AMUR RAILROAD

Space images afford a relatively new, rapid, and more economical source of information for the accurate mapping of exogenous factors of relief formation, particularly in areas of highly complex topography. This is illustrated in the mapping of such features along the route of the Baykal-Amur Railroad.
