ABSTRACT

We present a large scale (1:10,000) geomorphological map of Favignana Island, in which landforms were recognized and genetically categorized based on analysis of stereoscopic aerial photographs and freely available satellite images, complimented by a few validation tests performed in the field. The map was created following the guidelines of the Italian Geomorphological Working Group for landforms symbolic representation. This includes an immediate visual differentiationof the genetic character and the state of activity of landforms. Favignana, belonging to the Egadi Archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea (SW Italy), is a mid-sized (ca. 20 km²) mostly carbonatic island. The marine protected area surrounding the island represents the main attraction for tourists. Through this map, it was possible to highlight the richness and diversity, in terms of abundance and peculiarity of landforms, that characterizes the Island. This peculiarity makes of Favignana an excellent candidate for the exploitation of its geoheritage for touristic purposes.

摘要

我们展示了法维尼亚纳岛的大规模（1：10,000）地貌图，其中基于立体航拍照片和免费提供的卫星图像的分析，对地貌进行了识别和遗传分类，并在现场进行了几次验证测试。该地图是根据意大利地貌工作组关于地形符号表示的指南创建的。这包括对地理特征和地貌活动状态的直观视觉区分。法维尼亚纳（Favignana）属于第勒尼安海（意大利西南部）的埃加迪群岛（Egadi Archipelago），属中等大小（约20 km ²）大多是碳岛。岛屿周围的海洋保护区是游客的主要吸引力。通过这张地图，有可能以该岛的特征丰富和独特的地貌来突出其丰富性和多样性。这种独特的特性使法维尼亚纳成为旅游业开发其地质遗产的绝佳人选。
