Welcome to the GitHub home of the Digital Terrain Analysis Group (NNU-DTA) at Nanjing Normal University, China, led by Prof. Guoan Tang.
Our team focuses on advancing digital terrain analysis, geomorphological modeling, and GIS theory, with particular attention to the Loess Plateau as a key natural laboratory for landform research.


Research Areas

  • Digital Terrain Analysis
    Developing terrain parameters, metrics, and analytical frameworks based on high-resolution DEMs and multi-source geospatial data.

  • Geomorphological Evolution and Modeling
    Investigating landform dynamics and surface evolution driven by natural processes and human activities using models and Earth observation data.

  • Loess Plateau Geomorphology
    Analyzing the unique geomorphological features, anthropogenic landforms, and environmental impacts in the Chinese Loess Plateau.

  • GIS Theory and Methods
    Advancing geographic information science with new algorithms, spatial models, and geospatial technologies.


Data and Resources

This organization provides selected open-source tools, datasets, and code repositories, including:

  • DEM processing and terrain parameter extraction
  • Landform classification method and datasets
