Digital elevation models (DEM) used to assess soil erosion risks: a case study in Boyaca, Colombia

The objective of this research was to develop a model for assessing the risk of erosion, exploring the potential of DEMs from SRTM, ASTER, ALOS PALSAR and one made with interpolation of a 1:25,000 contour map to calculate the variables of the relief that have greater impact on erosion. Several geomo...
