The first part of this paper is the author's translation of his "Die Mechanisierung' der Analytischen Schattierung", which was first published in Kartographische Nachrichten, 16,3, 1966 and is included here by permission of the editors and publishers. A re-statement of the basic principles of the method is followed by an examination of the three main operations: the provision of data required for the computing of light intensity; the computation of the light intensity; and the graphic representation.In the second part the possibilities of the practical application of the method are treated in relation to the combination of shading and contours, hill-shading and air photographs, hill-shading and measurement of slopes, and hill-shading and reproduction.
