This textbook offers a comprehensive introduction to modern methodologies for mapping geomorphological formations across diverse environments. It emphasizes a holistic approach, linking advanced geomorphological mapping techniques with a deeper understanding of the processes that shape these phenomena. Key features include an overview of the processes involved in geomorphological formations and their mapping, alongside case studies that showcase various environments and examples of geomorphological maps. The text provides detailed descriptions of contemporary tools and methodologies, such as field sampling, GPS, 3–4D mapping, GIS analysis, and digital image analysis. Additionally, it includes a geomorphological encyclopedia detailing characteristics specific to different environments, complete with images, maps, and symbols. The workflow is thoroughly covered, encompassing data collection, analysis, interpretation, and mapping. Acknowledgments highlight contributions from various institutions and individuals, including Dr. John W. M. Peterson for text improvements, collaborations with CUTGANA for specific papers, and the use of the Integrated Land and Water Information System (ILWIS) for geographic information management. Recognition is also given to colleagues involved in the Montesinho Natural Park Management Plan and the enthusiasm of Professor Dionísio Gonçalves for the region.
