BUILDING UP A NATURAL SYNTHESIS SLICE AT PHONG NHA - KE BANG NATIONAL PARK

Abstract

Natural synthesis slices are spatial models, which represent the distribution, vertical and horizontal arrangement of natural aggregates such as geological factors, terrain factors (caves, elevation), climate (temperature, rainfall), hydrology, forest status, soil and additional information layers. Information layers are displayed and arranged in a scientific way to make an overview of natural conditions in the Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park. The slice located at A (longitude 105°54'30 '' East, latitude 17°34'15'’ North), B (longitude 106°18'15'' East, latitude 17°34'15'' North) presents the characteristics of natural conditions and relations among the natural elements of the Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park, resulting in a panorama in terms of the spatial dimension.
