colour, texture, quality of boundaries, homogeneity of shape and size and the relative size. 1. ) colour : the macro PMU are subdivided into smal ler units of different colours. 2. ) texture : textural elements are grouped into three categories : fine(f), medium(M) and coarse(c). 3. ) quality of boundry : X = very distinct, sharp and high contrast. Y = not distinct, not sharp and low contrast. 4. ) homogeneity of shape and size within the PMU. H = homogeneous size and shape. h = heterogeneous size and shape 5. relative size : p. = relative large size ; b. = relative small size. 9. REFERENCES Butzer, K.W. 1959.
