ISGM – Products

 

 

GIS toolboxes to support implementation of the ISGM approach

• Geoscience Australia’s Semi-automated Morphological Mapping Tools (GA-SaMMT)
  GA-SaMMT is a collection of seven ArcGIS Pro Python toolboxes that use Python 3+ to map ten bathymetric high and eight bathymetric low Part 1 Morphology Features.

• Confined Morphologies Mapping Toolbox (CoMMa)
  Confined Morphologies Mapping (CoMMa) Toolbox is an ArcGIS Pro toolbox for semi-automated morphological mapping (Part 1). CoMMa includes a suite of tools for delineating and describing any type of enclosed features on a DEM, either negative or positive. CoMMa was developed by the Marine Geoscience Group (University College Cork) in collaboration with the British Geological Survey and University of Glasgow.
