The morphometrical analysis of the landscape in the mountain basin of the Ialomita by the use of GIS techniques is made in several stages: the acquisition of the work materials represented by the topographic maps; the digitizing of all the map elements needed in the cartographical shaping of the main morphometrical parameters (level curves, altimetric quotas, the hydrographic network); the drawing up of the final maps by the use GIS specialized analysis programs. The main morphometrical parameters are analyzed: hypsometry, declivity, slope orientation, density and depth of landscape fragmentation taking into account the influence of the local factors on their spatial extension and on the values they register.
