"Northwest
Russia"
Created using both Didger and
Surfer
This image is a shaded tectonic map of Northwest
Russia, created by Aleksey Amantov (web site: http://home.comset.net/geolmap/).
Multiple shaded relief maps (created in Surfer)
that show different key surfaces of the tectonic map were imported into Didger
3. A large area showing several major domains was created, including separate
platform areas that have undergone different geologic history.
