Abstract:
General-theoretical and methodical problems of creation and use of the global geoinformation system, which reflects the basic regularity of formation, spatial and temporal variability of suspended sediment yield of the Earth's rivers, are considered. The role of river basins as geosystem formation in research of sediment yield is shown. Approaches to the automatic detection of river basin boundaries, methods of geoinformation system integration with thematic databases for purpose of geomorphological analysis of river suspended sediment yield are offered and tested.Keywords:
