In the article is given the methods of fulfillment consecutive stages of the relief morphometric analysis of basinal systems' within mountain territories using software package ESRI ArcGIS Desktop 9.3 (case study of the Chornogora's part of Prut's basin). The results of fulfillment this algorithm is developed digital elevation model, range of analytical and synthetic morphometric maps and hypsographical profiles, circular charts, bar diagrams, plots and tables of relief's various morphometric parameters as well as apportionment for their further complex morphogenetical analysis. Key words: morphometric analysis of the relief, geoinformation systems, geoinformation data base, digital elevation models, morphometric parameters of the relief, analytical and synthetic morphometric maps.

The aim of the following case study is to analyze quantitatively the drainage network in the Vitosha Mountain, SW Bulgaria. Drainage network is outlined from topographic maps and extracted from digital elevation model (DEM). Several morphometric parameters are calculated – drainage density, channel-segment frequency, total stream length, etc. Hierarchy of tributaries and main rivers is also discussed.
