Estimating slope from raster data – a test of eight algorithms at different resolutions in flat and steep terrain

Different slope algorithms can result in totally different estimates. In the worst case, this may lead to inappropriate and useless modelling estimates. A frequent lack of awareness when choosing algorithms justifies a thorough comparison of their characteristics, making it possible for researchers...
