Abstract

Visual representations of the earth’s surface can nowadays be produced on the basis of data with high resolution and accuracy. Especially 3D-visualisations can provide an excellent basis for “comprehensive cognition”. However, specific accentuations and generalisations are necessary to turn them into an adequate cognitive tool. Here we introduce a specific generalisation approach, presented by visualisations of two lowland landscape sections in the state of Brandenburg, Germany.
